    Duo2 launches October, expect in the shops by end of October or early November.

    The price.... ?450-500.. call it an 'estimate' if you like, I can assure you it's a little more 'informed'....

      Well that falls in with what I said in the first post. ?599 is about ?450-?500.
      So a ?399 solo would do me nicely.

        let's hope we get the same for the tuner on the duo model
        to be honest i dont have a problem with the duo
        it's a great box and it put my dm800se to shame
        for quality and it has a lot better images, all i want is a bit more
        signal and quality on the weaker sats like 7w and 3e

          Dream make fantastic receivers, always have done.

          The VU+ Duo however is a legend in it's own right. It single handedly gatecrashed Dream multimedia's party.

          It's a rock solid workhorse and it brought affordable Quality Linux E2 to the masses. It's still VU+ biggest seller.

            I cant fault my current Uno at the moment it is slightly better tuner wise than my Ultimo was and the recent FPGA upgrade has squeezed a little more out of it, But it still cant match my DrHD F15 for tuner sensitivity it can still pull signals in my Uno cannot.

              when is this duo 2 arriving?

              giga blue quad is released and is ?339 from uk sellers. Not bad pricing but need to see how it goes.

              if the duo2 is ?400 it would be reasonable. Will the duo2 have Gigabit ethernet? the gigablue quad does not have Gigabit LAN when it was rumored to have that.

                  I am holding off to buy an ultimo until the duo 2 arrives. I think I would prefer duo 2 if the price is similar to the ultimo, but need to be quick as I have a buyer for my dm800 clone
