    Best budget box?

    Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting either a starview or a eurovox. Been reading about the N3 switch over possibility and have decided against the more expensive boxes (EX7000). Any recommendations on the best budget boxes (<?100) and reliable retailers?

    Thanks

      Thanks Trevor, I've read some posts that say the Starview boxes are less reliable than Eurovoxe ones. Are they both as simple to set-up?

            dreambox 500s all the way. The smallest box out there yet its way ahead of the pack on what you can do with this tiny little piece of modern technology.

            This forum will teach anyone how to set it up

                surely you mean 500c, the C is for cable, S is for sat and T is for Terrestrial.

                  I have been looking at prices for the dm500c and have noticed a vast difference in price. For example DVBmonkey ?49, DVBseller ?39, then linuxsat.eu ?75.

                  Will these cheaper sites sell clones? I like the look of the black receiver on DVBmonkey but cannot find it anywhere else?

                      Wouldnt use DVBmonkey again, but its the other 2 suppliers I was talking about,
                      although DVBseller sell for ?39 p&p takes it up to around ?63 and you got to wait 7-10 days,
                      whereas Linuxsat do it for ?75 p&p FREE and you get it in 2-3 days ,

                      how bad you want it??

                          Had a dm500s from Linuxsat ?67 delivered in two working days. Highly recommended !

                            all these sellers buy their stock from dhgate.com. you get it for around ?35 all inclusive. Takes a week to come though

                              hehe if you can get dm500s delivered for ?35 from that site I'll take 1000
                              I get mine from dvbseller.com and no problems comes in 7 days. do NOT go near DVBmonkey scammers.
