I will second that Simon,

I think that this particular Dreambox will not be a best seller because nothing much open now to justify the cost. I would think that most people, like me, will stay with what they got until things change.

Even when you tally up that it could do the same as another two boxes:

It's a HD sat receiver
It could be a blu-ray player/recorder.
It could be a HD recorder.

If you put the other bits into your bare £800+ box you will still be talking a grand or more. :respect-057:

I have been putting off the DM800 and waiting for the 8000 just like a lorra peoples but if the opponents can't bring out a decent alternative then I really dont know which way to go.

BLUERAY?

The DM 8000 support multiple HDTV standards, including MPEG4/H.264 - that to be implemented by Sky in the UK! An improved power supply unit is included which will finally solve all previous PSU-related problems for good . A USB 2 port is also included as well as the standard RS232 serial port and Fast Ethernet port (no Gigabit ) It looks like the front of the box will house a multi-function (10) card reader so that you can easily load/access data, photos, mp3 etc. The LCD display has increased in size to 3,5x 5.5 cm. Naturally Linux is still the operating system, however it will be packaged in an 'easier to use form'.

We can only guess that means a complete re-write of Enigma. These details are still very sketchy. More news as we find it out

would have to be significantly more than the 800 though as that would be irrelevant 400 quids a bit to much more though
