Hi,

I am thinking of upgrading my cloned Starview with The Box Super, but I have a few misgivings.
1. I keep reading about boxes re-booting themselves, is this box problem or a firmware problem?
2. What happens if / when VM upgrade from Nagravision 1, will the box be able to cope with this?
3. How long before the next Starview box is released? Should I hang on and wait for this?

Any help with any of these questions would be much appreciated, Thanks.

If you must get one be careful where you buy from as the super is cloned also, was 3 weeks after the genuine one was released.

Denny, I was only going to buy from Wizard as I believe they are the main importer.

Unit14 thanks for your reply.
