[bod]

not sure about being dreambox killers but prices look good.......depends on where they are from

 

[dickie1968]

Don't see many Dreambox's with full 1080p and HDMI unless you have a nice 900 quid in the back pocket think they will do well for people looking to upgrade there eagles/dm500's.

 

[yossarian31]

support is building up quickly for these boxes on other sites. Im seriously thinking about swapping my eagle for the wifi one.

 

[dazzlet]

what is the software like on this box i mean in tearms of bugs and things?

 

[earwig999]

Anyone got one of these, are they any good?

Does it have English menus yet?

 

[witchy]

Very tempting.

Does it support dual tuners?

 

[witchy]

Does it have English menus yet?

Looking at some YouTube videos just now, the machine has English menus if selected.

 

[jamesyboyjim]

they look pretty good, although the vids i saw, the channel changes were a bit slow.

 

[hawkish]

MKV support too - yum yum

 

[osborne82]

linux with sources available and neutrino too looks like a winner


cheers

[dickie1968]
