Default dreambox hd

hi, ive been doing some research on the dreambox 800hd and have a couple of questions to ask.
1. does the dvi to hdmi make any difference even over a 1080p signal?
2. is there a scart fitted on the back of the box or included with it so non hd tv's can view it too?
3. what connections are on the back for any gamesconsoles/dvd/blu ray players?
4. are there any obvious traits to spot clones?
5. what is the best price YOU personally have seen of such boxes?
6. should i hold out for the other hd one? the 7025 i think
7. how easy is it to set it up as a sly+ -esque PVR?

many thanks to whoever can answer all or any of these, this will come in use to all potential new buyers too. thanks

If they are under around £375, then they are likely clones. The clones do suffer with tuner problems but otherwise are pretty good. If you are looking at spending around £400, you may want to look at the Vu Duo+
