Honestly I've no idea why they are referring to multiroom, maybe this is a translation issue . First sample box for testing should be here in a few days so if I see anything that might equate to multiroom I'll post up here. I'll also check out if the two usb ports are both the same which would give the option of using the external hard drive at the back of the box.

Tony of Satellite.ie is a Ferguson agent in Ireland. Lets see what kind of prices (and deals if any for boards members he has).
Delivery to Ireland is €12.39, making the delivered price €84.85. Can any Irish supplier match that?

Wondering is that menu example shown on the screenshot a fixed one?

In other words, will YOUPORN always be on your menu?

If so, I think thats rather strange. I can see it now - "Daddy, whats YouPorn?"

Of course they can't.

As mentioned earlier, satworld have thrown down the gauntlet @ €100. Tony will prob come in close I guess. Eitherway, ask yourself is it worth €15 for the peace of mind of a local supplier, hence an easy return/exchange if issues arise, which, if it's predecessor is anything to go by, will be a real concern.

I've pm'ed a mod to ask if I can answer the pricing question but no reply so far.

Reason for this is advertising is (quite rightly) not allowed here normally.

Sorry, but what is the main difference between the 150 and 250.
Have to say personally, was quite happy with my 120, not perfect but good overall.
Any more details on the price for the wifi dongle thing

i cant see ferguson doing anything with them for the irish market because as has been mentioned with the 120 if they put mheg5 on it it would have been a serious winner but ferguson don't seem interested in it.

Bit the bullet with the 150 last night and then seen this. Rang them this morning and changed my order

The 150 is in stock. The 250 is not, although they do expect to receive delivery in 48-72hrs.

Will post details once I have it.

As yes but the chipset support CI+ modules. We will see what Tony comes back with from Ferguson.

I am sure it hasn't escaped Ferguson Polands' attention that they were shipping significant large numbers of the 120s to Ireland.

Just wondering if any of the Irish suppliers know when they will have the 150 in stock?
Just prefer to buy local, given little difference in price and easier to deal with any issues if they arise (though i have had no issues with the 120).

Thanks.

Ferguson have started shipping so most Irish suppliers should have stock by middle of next week if not sooner.
