    if your going to buy the starview 2 "the box" there are no clones so you can't really go and buy the wrong one.but if you are going to but a eurovox but the eurovox v 2008 because they are the newest ones and there are no clone of them either.don't buy anything off ebay because you don't know what there sending you until its on your doorstep.
    i think you get s*y and set@nt@ sports.

    clone means a copy of the originals usually not as good.

    Really appreciate your help

    Theres people i know selling htem here in belfast, and can keep sorting them .. But they charge like 100 odd quid for box and 10-20 everytime it knocks off.

    em and the missus cant afford sky as bad as it sounds. Id much raqther buy a reputable box and with the help of good people liek yourself keep sorting it my self ..

    was offered abox yesterday for 145quid was like fahhacck that.

    I sorted my internet my self , well the guy got me the modem i had to go to the ntl box down the road and plug my cable in .. LOL

    We had a starview before but there was probles with some channels and they were all overthe place ..

    Just out of curiosity .. Is it possible to buy a top end box that has a menu system and programe guide similar to s*y/NtHell .???

    id pay the money for one of the eurovoxs if i knew it was legit ,and the difference lol

    if you are going to buy starview make sure it is not a clone the genuine has 25 cuts in the top the clone has only 16 and i thought you where talking about sly 1 not sports you should get all that your neighbor gets on there box for less money also get a eurovox or dreambox less hassel with them they keyroll by themselves check out ebay and look at there ratings before you buy also all the information and software is available free of charge so no need to pay for it

    Your taking a risk buying the boxes from fleabay (like everything else) alot of places wont put the software on them as it is illegal to do so but they will more then likely send u to somewhere like AD
    where you will prob get the help u need !
    so if its not flashed with software dont worry too much , it can be got....
