    Ive just tried the search bar & found nothing, so looks like its never been discussed on the forum.
    Try a google search & see if you find any info.

    well just to say i been runnig 1 of these babies for for a long time now .and i can say i love it it does all what it says on the box and more .basical its a dreambox clone so all linux enigma Neutrino images and tools for the dream work for this .i run pli images but ther lots too choose from .well as i basicaly run it most of the time on Satellite with 1.2 mrt dish on a stab motor...But i must say its also verry stable on the cable side also did not get any freez on pics when i have had it on cable side of things all you do is turn the power of to the box and flick the switch on the back to what you want to watch sat /cable. so it got a stable tuner in there .also its nice and small simalar to starview size so dont take a lot of room up

    anyway good luck with which way you go

    Anything you can get on a dreambox mate on the cable side on the sat side you get FTA unless you employ some sea lion trickery ;)
