one thing i did notice that kind of worried me.i dont see any port for flashing the box.should it have one?

 

[carbandit]

scooby here is a site for gen dreambox and the rear pics highlight a service port where we would flash ...the image from your site doesnt seem to have this port .but as you have not released any cash have a play with the one you get ..........Google Image Result for http://www.southernsat.co.uk/cart//images/products/Dreambox-DM-500-HD_Dreambox-DM-500-HD_b3.jpg

I am trying to have a online chat with them, to clarify a few things...

I have a DM800HD at the moment, do they take the same or similar image, and can they stream across the LAN to a browser like I can with a 800??

Does anyone know?

ME!!!!!!!!!: Your DM500HD looks different to the original. I can't see a port for configuration. Can you confirm these are ok, and do they include a internal sim card, if required? (2011-01-07 05:19:10)

let us know fta if the pdf arrives... personly i would wide berth this company but im a cautious coont ....lol

I looked into the DM500HD clones a few months ago and apparently they are seriously under-powered (250mhz chips) for producing HD pictures. Not sure if I would trust them at this stage in their development.

I assume EMS is the safest to avoid duty?

 

[Superflous]

Yes I've used EMS 4 times, never got bother with customs once (and that's with bulk packages too).
