    I don't know about the nano but the vu is without one of if not the best box out there , ive not got a duo ive got a solo but I cant fault it . the firmware for these boxes is called an image and theres lots about , I use blackhole myself and others use vix . I don't know about the nano but I do know that technomate boxes are very well made boxes , I know a guy that has the latest twin technomate and he says its better than a duo , if so that's really saying some thing .with most boxes these days you pop the firmware (image ) onto a usb stick and insert it into the box , either a pop up message appears on screen with options to send the image into the box (thats called flashing )or the box just detects the image and automaticly sends it into the box , and its usually quick just a few minutes .
