Best budget he box with good support

[grover2000]

Hi can someone point me in the direction of a good budget satellite hd box?

I have had a Starview 7 and want to move away from cable.

Thanks in advance

£60 will get you a budget HD sat box, Openbox and Skybox F3
type boxes seem to becoming popular.
Believe the EPG is only now and next program.

£150 ish is Blade, DM800, 7 day EPG.

Technomate is also an option, have a fairly big section
but don't know anything about them, you would
have to have a read in that section an see what people say.

Thats where I would start,

I went straight for a the blade as good reviews and in my budget.
Never looked back since switching from cable.

You will have to have a read and make your own mind up


Oh !!! all boxes have PVR function so I hope you catch my drift
about the program guides.

well supported/good back up would have to be a linux box with 7 day epg,now and next sucks,they are not cheap and are harder to program.
