Just posted details in this section of the Kaon KSF-S700H2 (a sweet-looking twin tuner PVR HD STB, and you can try saying that after a pint or three), part of the overall S700 range.

Other members of the family include a 'base' HD satellite model, and interestingly a satellite/terrestrial combo HD box, the KTSF-S700 as well as a straight terrestrial box and a cable box.

They are not out just yet, so I haven't fully included them in this thread

I suppose that it is only in prototype state but don't forget Samsung DSB-H360 which will be available in different version.

Thanks a lot, Good2talk.
I forgot that I had downloaded Samsung STB catalogue. There were flagship model DSB-P960 with PVR capability along with DSB-H360G/R/Z (NagraVision/Irdeto/Conax embedded respectively).

Hi Vaso :welc3:

We would be interested in any news you come across regarding HD satellite receivers

It seems that most manufacturers are gearing up to start mass production around now, so I'm sure we'll have lots to talk about!

Not since the ANGA show AFAIK.

It'll take me another three months before I get over the shock of THAT announcement!

My guess would be that you won't see one for at least 6 months, but I'm notoriously bad at estimating as my wife will tell you! :roflmao:
