    I don't believe for one second that the service will be sustainable without renewal subscriptions but time will tell.
    But they are already for sale on certain sites Lincsat so cant be a very exclusive club!

    A750 and i-connector ?220+

    I'd rather pay ?50 for a sammy 3110 and an extra ?20 on sub for sports

      OK, so this might be a really dumb question but what is the actual function of the iconnector? What does it do to the box? My theory is that it keeps updating codes from the internet so the box stays tuned in, although I'm probably wrong! Thank you :P

            No m8, ?20 on top of the basic package (which the "majority" of us have)for sly sports but obviously no espn

            No doubt there will be a BIG price drop for these iconnectors once other box manufacturers catch up!

            If the "i-connector" is only a ethernet to serial converter then theres a hell of alot cheaper versions available, the firmware is for the KV box and not solely written for the "i-connector" as i understand, could be wrong!!

            If peeps dont already own a KV i think it would be stupid to pay ?220+ for an unproven system, probably looking at ?330+ for the DW800.......fcuk that

                yeh u probably can get a cheap serial to ethernet convertor, so what about the cost of the subs? im sure the reason why its priced high is cause it takes into consideration the costs for all subs, server costs, maintenance, fast hosting etc.

                      think we got our wires(cables) crossed

                      Yea think its time to switch to a sat system!

                      Only problem for me is a massive oak tree behind the house that blocks all sunlight nevermind sat signals

                              Well first, Starview lasts how long mmmm 1 yr sub ohhh yaaa, Combo box dont work on cable ohhhh i seeee, starview 6 dont work in Uk mmmm, still having probs getting it to work ohhh myyy,

                              Now Kryptview dont have a year sub whooooo so box lasts longer, greatttttttttttt and whats better if you have a box, yes have one, ya dont have to buy another one, yaaaaa.

                              So ok outlay might be big at first, but a lot cheaper then a forever sub to your provider, or a 12 mth one to Starview, your choice.

                                Does that mean you are not going to sell Starview any longer in favour of KV?
