i love toys
spent a while looking at them now after seeing the link above ..
there seem to be cable versions .. and sattelite versions ,, is that right ?

but in short i guess the main things i'd like to know ..
for cable .. is a dreambox better than a dbox2 ? and will it do what a dbox2 will do with as much ease ..
and the main thing for me .. i notice they have hard drives like a tivo .. so i guess this of for recording porgrams ... anyone know does it function as well as tivo or sky+

only the 500C is for cable, the others are for sat. The 500C doesn't come with a hard drive
