I called him last week and asked when he would be accepting advanced orders, he refused to take my money and said that I should watch the website for updates, he also assured me that he would only put information on the site if it was accurate.

I have no reason to doubt his word.

Hello Yoda as you probably have read I got fed up with being told "March 25th then April 10th etc etc" that I canceled my pre ordered 800 and bought a Kathrein.
Do you still have yours? I have tried to catch you on msn and PM'ed you but to no avail.
Anyway I am happily watching HD now, football is brilliant just need some **** lol. I will probably wait for the 8000 as I thought the 800 looks tiny when I saw the picture of a laptop HDD nearly filling the case.
Edit: my pre-order price was £349 + delivery so they have gone up by £10 before they even appeared.

It will then be late May, June, July .....

Think I will get one of the new Freesat HD PVR's before the DM800/8000 ever appears. :D :rolleyes:

Why bother talking about something thats pointless in the first place.i was only stating the facts his numbers there and he's one of thier main outlets.in UK
im sure if another manufacturer brought out a linux base box that could be used for cs and was HDTV there would be just as much interest in that .after all what does a dream box do in its shipped condition to warrent all this interest??????????????.
plenty of HDTV box to go and buy isn't there go buy one youve got your HDTV signal to pump into your HDTV tv

Kathrein 910 usf and Ipbox 9000 do an good job as Dreambox does, even better if you ask me

now the dm reliase date is to 30.04.08 , we have to wait and see untill late april
will it come out or will it be new date agein :D

my self im enjoying the Ipbox 9000 hd, newcs and mgcamd is now rolling on
CS is on to :D , HD quality is amazing

DM reliase date is acctualy new Drug , many have become so addicted to this new drug that we cant stop wating no more :D

Just that CCcam will never work for Kathrein or IPBOX.

The DM800 is deja-vu all the way as DM8000.

I don't think the boxes will ever be released to be honest.

bobi
15-04-2008, 10:20 PM
as long as there is newcs there wil be cs , hihihiihih
no mater what emu you use.

@ kegrka , if i understood you right then nope , GB will not work
as is not complied for this platforms , and probably never wil.

Im loving my Ipbox now, cannot wish to have another box than this,
had Kathrein for some time , was OK , but not as easy as the Ipbox to settup
and was no Motor at the time i had it, so is historey for me.

Dreambox , well im sure it will come , and im sure i will have 1 just for tests
but i will keep Ipbox as is one of the best receivers i have come accross til now.

cheers

Just spoken to my distributor who informs me that the DM800 has some real software issues, as his sample has the following problems:

Picture Freezes
Sound Problems
Takes 6 Minutes to boot up!

He reckons another 3 weeks before he gets stock.

I know the place you mean, they have it on their site now and state it will be delivered within 3 weeks.

I still would not buy it just yet, I need to know its working 100% before I even "dream" ( do u like that ) with parting with my cash.

I will be pleased to see it released even though I now have a Kathrein, as I still lust for an 8000.
Remember that the same dealer told me 3 weeks at the beginning of March.

So...just because a dealer has a dummy demo unit we are nearer to release?

Another dealer says it will be in stock 30th April.

Any more offers?

I am running out of patience.

There must be demo units about with the developers, as images are being released quite often for the DM800, so hopefully it won't be too many years away from being in the shops.:001_07:

To be fair I know a beta tester on another forum who has one and at the mo its not good.

The worst problem for some reason when scanning 19.0e it only finds about a quarter of channels.

Even if it was released tomorrow I would wait another 4 weeks before getting one.

The ipbox 9000 started slow but now its rocking and images coming think and fast for it and people who have it are made up.

I would love to get the ipbox 9000 but CCcam will not work on and I have no choice but to use this emu.

xanadu
28-04-2008, 08:09 PM
The IPBox 9000 is on my shortlist, and I am not too worried about no CCcam available, but is it worth £250 more than a Kathrein UFS910 ? Not yet i think, but it's early days with development I guess.

I had a phone call today from the main UK distributor, telling me my box would soon be arriving even though I had cancelled it by phone and email.
I emailed them saying refund my credit card and to confirm this by email.
I got a general email announcing "the DM800 in stock" ffs
I will keep you informed of progress!!!
