i've been looking around and came across these new starboxes? The look pretty good.

Does anyone know anything about them? Do they work exactly the same as a dbox2?

Does anyone have any information on where to get images for these boxes and guides as to how to flash them, as I am considering purchasing one of these boxes.

Thanks Guys

these boxes come preloaded with software,so no need for flashing.the epg isnt good as the dbox.these boxes only give u now and next info. channel change on these are instant,better than the old fta101.u just plug in and scan for channels.

Hiya

I bought one of these from ebay and was that impressed i bought another. I haven't owed any of the other boxes and to be honest after reading about flashing, software upgrades etc it kinda put me off buying one but i heard that the starview were as simple as setting a freeview box up so i bought one and it was really that simple.

Go on, get one and tell us what you think. i bought mine for £82 from ebay with p&p included.

I went for the eurovox 3 the one I had auto updates and so call doesn't need any software updates - we have been using it for about two weeks and it is great, set up the favorite menu's and now is superb - very easy to work.
