which openbox to get

[pspmixer]

my friend is looking to get a openbox
which one should he get as ive got a s9 but there are newer ones out now
so which one should he get and why also best firmware for them too

[baz007]

i would recommend the s10, nice little box. I think the s10/11/12 are pretty similar but yeah s10 is my choice

[dan19]

s9 is the best from the range

the most basic set up.. 2nd hand sly minidish.. ?5 ish
openbox ?60 ish
coax, cable clips mount for dish.. 10-15 ish

the difference between openbox and dreambox is that the openbox is simply a hd pvr for watching telly, no more no less, the dreambox is capable of so much more.. granted the hd version is more or less twice the price of the openbox, but it does so much more

,i know what im like,,,if i go for an openbox, once i get my head round it and realise i could of got something else that does more i would be pished off,,off to dreambox thread

composite

I needed composite output so I went with the s10.
s9 is obsolete.

Could someone please be (more) specific on what the biggest differences are between the S9 and S10?
