So, I haven't gone near it yet as I wanted to post on here. Now the evaluation begins. I will concentrate on the most important things initially, like watching and recording TV. Later when I am more familiar I will check out all the extra high tech stuff.
OK! Very brief first impression are very favourable. I checked out two things that have been, and are also, concerns for others.

1/ SD picture quality is not a problem. On my Sharp 36" LED TV there is no perceptible difference over the V+. I am very fussy about my PQ and I am satisfied.

2/ Somebody posted that the remote had to be pointed directly at the box and would not register if it was at an angle. I have not experienced this. The remote functioned from all angles. The response can be a little slower than my V+ box which never had any lag issues.

Happy days so far.


More later!
