    Much appreciated :D

    I was thinking about it but theres no native plex client on it, there are workarounds but I have no experience with it so im hesitant. If it was covered by argos' 30 day money back guarantee I would give it a go.At least then if it didnt work like I want could just bring it back

    Seen them recently in Maplins off Mary St. (near Pennys Henry St), if it's not too late for you.
    €130+
    Maybe someone you know in Dublin could get it for you.....

    Doylers..... Am thinking of getting one from the US next week.....and would be interested to know if it's reasonably straight-forward to set up.
    Have read posts re initialising them to get them to work
    requires US credit card / address....?
    Have read post re having to load PLEX or UTube apps
    controlled via the states......?
    Have read post re access to iPlayer, 5OD (UK sites)
    requires access thru service provider with country concealing facility....?
    Could you enlighten me on any any of the above......
