Openbox V8S?

[padge69]

Ok so I currently have a Skybox F5S and im looking to possibly upgrade it and get an Openbox V8S.

Before I do this though I was looking for a bit of advice first so anything would be appreciated?
I need to know the following if anyone knows?

What are the differences in both boxes?
Are the channel updates the same as the F5S with AJ's list? (Cant find them on the forum)
Can you add other apps to it?
What is Web TV all about?
What is IPTV and can you get it on this box?
What is the record function like?
Can you get iPlayer, 4oD etc on it?

Dont want to go wasting my money on it and then find its a load of sh*te?

Help please!?!?!?
Cheers all!!

they basically the same boxes. just the exterior case has changed. and no you cannot get 4od or any other catchup tv service.

if you planning on buying a new cheap box, then of course buy latest v8s over f5s.

i had the f5s now got the v8s and theres not alot of difference,i wouldnt say its worth paying to upgrade
the menus look slightly different but work exactly the same
the only major difference is the v8s has 2 usb slots where the f5s only has one

F5s are miles better than the v8s in picture quality.

F3/5 over V8s anytime
