                VU+ solo has arrived 4 days after ordering from dreamboxparts, very quick considering its came from china.
                On inspection it appears to be ok.

                Will have a go tonight to set it up on the motor, hopefully all will be ok...."fingers crossed"

                  did it come straight from China or from a UK address?

                        The Clone Duo's seem to be standing up pretty well as for the hard drive just rob one out of a skyhd box problem solved.

                          Paypal Payment went to aspley email address through dreamboxparts web site. Direct from China

                          Never bought the duo went for a Solo, not sure if you can have an internal hard drive in the solo, but I do have a 200gb external drive attached which works spot on. Im still ironing out the little problems.
                          I would say though the vu+ solo is up there with me DM800 so far.
