Default STARVIEW HD No Support Shows The Future

I own a KV a780 and a starview 7 my friend has a starview Hd. To date there is no file such as the show must go on for starview hd. We know these boxes are not selling or have sold anywhere the number of starview 6 and 7. If starview team was trying to offer support after recent bad times supplying a new file for the HD boxes would be no problem. It still may arrive but if it doesnt this clearly shows recent efforts such as the show must go on have only been made to shift existing unsold boxes of which there are far more 6's and 7's than HD.

In which case the future is bleak if no support arrives for HD its clear to assume its all about clearing stock and making maximum profits. So once all 6 and 7's have gone dont expect much future support.
  1. starview 6's & 7's thousands to date and still a lot of boxes on shelves to sell
  2. HD sold maybe a couple of hundred, not many made so not many remaining on shelves
  3. support by Starview could easily put HD back on now so if they dont it shows its all about taking our money short term without future support or care.

does it really? we are getting the service in the mean time, IF the HD dont come on its no great deal because as u said only a few hundred sold, SV are gettin the 6 and 7's up first because they will need to make money to get everything else working?

yeah it seems we combo owners have been overlooked! but i suppose we can wait and see what happens but something more positive would be nice.
shame you cant have a dish where u are tho,, that would solve the probem. so the kv still not back running,,,, thats a bummer for you mate.
lets hope the sv ppl get the whole hd thing sorted asap so at least we can have access to what we paid for in the first place!!!!

maybe we should push for that a bit more,,

ALL COMBO OWNERS LEAVE A MESSAGE IN THIS THREAD! MAYBE THEN WE WILL HAVE OUR VOICES HEARD!!

regards dave
