It is interesting that Humax appear to be introducing a Freely recorder based on the older series of devices (e.g. FVP-5000T) rather than the newer Aura model.
As UKMediaChanges have pointed out, until the official specs and user reviews are available. Buyer beware!

At a UKCG meeting today it was decided to reimpose the restriction on UKCG data being released through public forums. It is inappropriate to release information via platforms which promote fantasy scenarios over, or even alongside, facts.
Promoting fantasies only sows confusion.
