kryptview or starview?

[nature]

after doing some research. I'm just wanting some final opinions in which do you think is better Starview or kryptview 780?

The starview is about ?120 on ebay
the Kryptview is for ?150 on ebay.

So I'm wondering if it's worth the extra dollars.

thanks

kryptview m8, its better supported than the starviews, and i havnt seen hardly any reports of problems with the kryptview, definitely worth the extra beer tokens

kryptview is the best , well worth the extra money

theres no comparison, kryptview definately the best.
Starview very unreliable, with updates for older boxes, they are more interested in ripping people off by bringing out new boxes rather than upgrading older boxes.

thanks for that.

So do we just get the box , put the firmware on it which we download from here. Then just stick the VM wire in it and the internet one. That's all?

More or less. Have a read of Kryptview firmware loading guide.
Best to use latest firmware 09/09/2010. A780
Both of the above can be found at top of Kryptview page.
It is also helpful to know correct NET-ID when scanning, this
NET-ID can be found in menu on PROV. box

I'll take your word for that Cactikid, in fact I will quote you on it.
