"so far theres 3 things holding me back from placing my order...
1 uses that F connector, isnt that gonna reduce quality?
2 remotes a brick apparantly and bad
3) firmware !"
Sorry m8, you may think the remote is a brick because I said it was. I'm back tracking a bit on what I said earlier but the remote isn't really a brick. Its quite large but no larger than say a modern TV remote. In fact its quite a good remote , its got all the PVR functions on it as well. The only problem I have is that I like to use just one remote for everything, but hopefully I will be able to solve that.
As for the F-connector, I've always used one with my Dbox and unless someone tells me differently, I don't think that theres any reduction in picture quality.
If you are interested in buying one I can recommend mash at Tailor Made Circuits, very speedy delivery and very helpful.
Look see regarding the FW, it will be out when it comes out. The support from what I have seen over years has been really good, so lets just give them time and accept that they are working on it.
I really cannot see any signal loss using the F connector.. I've compared it with the signal on the 750 and it's exactly the same in the 80's with Quality in the 90's.
I totally love the new remote its responsive and has nice rubber side grips and the buttons are great for guys with big ham fingers like myself.
Only problem I have with this box is that there's a picture of some big ugly bast**d on the panel looking at me all the time. LOL
cheers for all the info guys nice too hear the remotes good and responsive, I would have used an all in one remote but they werent so good with the arnet 750 and not supported.
