    You wont got far wrong with a Blade BM7000S or Technomate TM-5402, but these are non-linux, nothing like your Uno. Cheapest genuine Enigma2 receiver similar to your Uno would be the Xtrend ET5000 http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/...llite-Receiver

    ET5000 is a slightly but only slightly faster box than and ET6000 even faster RAM wise

    but me personally i would recoment a SOLO over a ET5/6000

    as it has 2 card slots and a cam slot aswell

    the ET 5/6 only has 1 card slot

    if i remember on Thursday i'll post up a picture from one of mine but as its a e1 box the EPG is pretty basic.

    Thanks, have a feeling I'm spoilt with VIX EPG but need to buy a cheap box, so just interested in how it looks.

    For what it is the TM600 is a belting little box, cant fault it hardware wise and i know as i have two of them. however the only niggle for me is that while the box is E1 it's images are relatively closed source and as such you dont have the same scope for plugins and images as you would for say my DM600 or DM7020.

    The TM600 is a great little box, let down by lack of decent images. The EPG is very basic, as it is on all e1 boxes. I'm using MV EPG to give me 7days on Sky UK,

    Couple of screen grabs to give you an idea,
