        Although SV is the only cable box capable of HD I would stay clear as it is prone to freezing. Your paying that extra money to get a HD box but what is the point if its constantly freezing!

        The KV A780 hardly ever freezes but does not have HD capability and the EPG on the starview's are definatly much better then KV but again what is the point if it glitches alot.

        Whenever big matches/programmes or events are on that is usually when it freezes loads as servers cant cope with demand

              AGREED BUT ,picture quality not same as HD. moor like the old dbox if not better,and no krypview hd until the demand for the existing 780 wears off.

                The 9600 is a satellite only box, basically like the Spiderbox 9000 without the gift or as much support.

                  Also remember the Starview only has a life of 12mts, after that new box required, also the Starview Combo is no longer made so support will prob be dropped for this soon, i can only imagine it will end up like all the previous Starview boxes in the bin for people that dont have sat option.

                    Its a pity Kryptview don't have the Sat option then the sky would be the limit.
