Difficult to call. I would think they've been issued under a 12 month contract agreement so technically they could still be recalled by TT. But as long as the seller continues to pay TT, how will they know. As TT just give them out whether you want one or not, this was bound to happen. If you bought one, you'd have bought it legally. I've never kept a mobile phone for longer than about 6 months, I've always sold them to get the latest and greatest. But as long as I pay my contract, nobody cares.

As for working, yes they do. They're a very cheap way of buying a Freeview HD PVR with catchup. You can get Netflix and Now TV on them too (not sure about Lovefilm or Blinkbox).

That's what I believe to be true. If you're thinking about buying, I'd pop into somewhere like the DS YouView forum first to check. Enjoy.
