The Gigabit Ethernet Port allows data to transfer up to 10x faster than standard Ethernet Ports allowing faster streaming, file transfers, downloading/uploading...and more!

Not leaving the Standard Definition (SD) channels behind, we’ve developed a built-in hardware Upscaler to improve the picture quality of Standard Definition (SD) channels via the HDMI output.

You can use a USB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) or an internal 2.5" Hard Disk Drive to record all your favourite channels, listen to your music and watch a slideshow of your photos.

The silent temperature and speed controlled fan cools the TM-Nano 3T only when needed and the speed level can also be adjusted.

I personally own a Miraclebox mini combo , I find it fine. Not superfast zapping but does what is says on the tin.

I might punt for the Zgemma Star H1 twin £75 shipped seems cheap enough and it has a samsung tuner in it and 750 broadcom processor
