Thanks Costactc
How do you like the new receiver, any problems? I am thinking on getting the UNDRO but it comes out after the 12 next month, he gave me a quote already.

I like the picture quality and the internet add ons. The x2 is still a faster and more sensitive blind scan but this receiver does well on both those areas. I've been real busy so I haven't had much time to test it out. I will have much more to report later.

The Undro sounds like a fantastic receiver, but I'm not going to make the mistake of buying one without seeing a hands-on review first. As I said before, just because it has blind-scan doesn't mean it's a GOOD blind-scan. Also, unless I missed it, I didn't see anything in the specs regarding whether it has the ability to stream channels to a computer, a feature my current box has that I'd certainly miss.

Man the more I read about it the more I like it, I am not to picky about the time for blind scan as long as it is accurate and does not miss any TP'S, But we know they miss TP'S.
I ask if there was a video showing the blind scan, but no answer yet.
I was quoted 190.00 dollars and 225.00 dollars 2 dealers.
well lets see how this thing does when it comes out.
Regards.

Here's a site [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] that did a review of the first XBMC and sat receiver combined. It has about the same speed chip and memory. It did not get the most favorable review, but of course, it did have it's initial growing pains when it first came out.

I would expect the Qviart will be the same, especially since it offers Android in addition to XBMC. After being burnt a few times, I will watch and wait for a review on this one.

[Costactc]

I'm finally starting to get familiar with this receiver and I really like it. Aside from awesome picture quality, fast blind scan, quite sensitive tuner, internet features, taking live pictures and much more-this stb is a keeper for me. I have contacted Carlos about the you porn feature not working properly, hopefully future fw will address that issue. The Unic will now become my permanent go to receiver on my circular c band feed. If anybody wants to know more, don't be shy to ask.

I expect to have an UNDRO to test soon!
