      If you are used to the TM600 then the most obvious choice for HD would be the DM800, it's still the only (other than it's big brother) to work directly with CCcam as client and server, plus it works very similar to how your TM600 will have done, it's Linux Enigma 2 based so you shouldn't have much trouble getting to grips with it... They do come in at ?389 though.... If you're not looking to spend quite that much take a look at the Coolstream HD-1, I think this could well start turning a few heads soon (it already has some!), it's Linux based and already has a big following with a lot of third party support and can even work (as client only) with CCcam, at ?249 given the spec. its got it's well worth adding to your 'worth a look' list.... We should have more stock of these within the next 2 weeks (I'm hopeful it'll be sooner).

          Thats interesting what you say about the coolstream, would you recommend a particular forum for reading up on this box. How do you rate it against the icecrypt hd which has dual tuners for just a little more money.

              Just looked up the specs of the ICECRYPT S4000HDPVR, looks good on paper. Have you seen much support for these? Such as CCcam etc?

                  I know that it runs incubus, and that apparently someone has got it running as an Octagon 1018 which has a lot of support. Satdudez have just started posting a bit about it as well. The reason i'm interested in it is that you can get it for ?242 at the moment if you know someone with access to a uni ip address (farnell uni discounts).
