    I use the Skybox F3... No complaints!! Great HD picture and easy to set up and navigate.

    EPG is poor (now and next) but doesnt bother me...

    Get a dm800, full 7 day epg, loads of plugins and huge user base. Openbox is ok for second tv, not main one. Go to satboxes.com, sound lad.

    Best box currently would be the VU + Duo, expensive but its the best out there for EPG, recording etc...

    Had a look at satboxes.com

    His prices :eek: I get most of my boxes from the UK posted for free (to Newry area) and can get most of those boxes for a fraction of the price.

    Ive got the Vu+ Duo its awesome. But very expensive

    I have a Ferguson Ariva 120 in the bedroom for sunday morning lie ins.


    Presently the Amika one is actually a nice compromise between the price of the Duos and lower models that you want to smash you head off a wall with.

    There is a thread on the Amiko, ive seen it in operation and looks very good.
