same as noel, put a better security chip make it a bit faster, no mention of N3,IPTV. out to make money before it goes completely to pot. wots that 3 boxes in a year.

Plus its not even a HD box dee :(

 

[Evastar]

I think there's been a few problems with the sv4, maybe this won't have the same issues?

 

[noelyf]

Theres problems with the firmware already eva :(

 

[wheelo]

what a swizz, it looks the same as the last one, features practically the same besides the security chip, not worth getting until the nagra/iptv situation is sorted out

 

[cactikid]

if they are to make boxes need to have the new generation hdmi not scart old skool.:gah::sorry:

 

[HiTecK]

I think they should have both but they are a cheap box, if they sold them with only HDMI I think they would loose allot of sales due to the fact that not everyone has a HDMI socket in there TV.

 

[cactikid]

should have said added a hdmi not removed the scart as the sky hd has both,wonder what happened the spdif socket handy for the amps.
