Hey guys
I'm thinking of coming onto the sat scene but am not sure where I should start.
I know that there are 2 main types of boxes: Technomate and Dreambox.
Is there a definitive guide as to the pro's and cons of each or a thread to the same effect?
Or could anyone reading this thread provide me with some facts or their opinions as to which one is best. I've seen a DM800 here: h**p://www.dvbmonkey.com/catalog/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=36
I have a standard sky minidish at the the moment, but looking to get something that is future proof if i decide to get a motorised set up.
The box should have the ability to pick up freeview as well as cardshare. I want to be able to get as many channels as possible.
I don't have a HD TV and I'm not fussed if it doesn't have a PVR (although I could change my mind! lol)
Also, just as a side note, I was also looking at perhaps buying a box and subscription from another country as I've heard it's cheap that way.
Any tips and pointers would be well received.
