A780 future

[vsh]

Now that my A750 is dead I am thinking of buying A780 or A850HD. Can anybody shed some light in future of these boxes please? If A780 will be dead in say 1 year or so and A850 will last another 2 years it might be better idea to go for 850. Any help appreciated. Many Thanks

I understand that nobody can tell exactly what's going to happen but if some senior members have some idea it will help me decide which box to go for.

Nice one!! Yes I am in UK, I have big TV and I do like HD quality. Reason of considering A780 apart from price is that I have read so many threads telling they have glitching problem with A850?
If it is simalar to A750/A780 with occasional freezing problem its fine but if its worse I dont think its worth buying 850. But I am open to suggestions..

well with the 750 now gone we need feedback to see if anything has changed.

i started off with starview 1,went to digivox and digivox xl and kv700 then nowt,got to know the ins and outs,even without a box can still have ideas for trying to make them better for viewing but things have moved on much more.
