christmas coming early - new vu+ solo on way!

**Stanman** · 17-12-10, 20:09

I have VIX 1.2 on it and its not a bad box but for the £100 difference the DUO is better.
The DUO boots faster, has a display and is more responsive and to me its worth the £100 extra

well my solo arrived today. got vix loaded up straight away and is excellent. equally as reliable and quick as the duo. and pic on the hd channels on my new tv look fantastic. so i am a happy chappy

also set up a network mount to my vu+ duo hdd and works perfect for recording and for watching my duo recordings out here with my solo

well done mate now just waiting for mine on monday but with the 12inch show doubt it though

Hi mates

Was expecting to see my box delivered on friday but no movement on tracking since its left the hub to travel south on thursday on reading up on city link site it says my local hub is running 2 days behind...great !!! its a pity they didnt decide to open today and play catchup will give them to monday see if it comes then i will have to start chasing them, i would have thought some movement even if it was to show it arrived down south and was pending delivery.
Im getting worried as my last box a duo also got lost in transit just hope this aint gone the same way ???

regards

What you doing playing with it already?! Thought it was meant to be a Christmas present? You should've waited another week! Santa won't be happy

ah she let it slip when i mentioned i was ordering one last week off sponsor and she had to admit she already had got one. it came in post addressed to me. how was si to know it was the solo

{even if i had been tracking it for the previous 24 hours

}

Christmas has come early santa [city link] has just dropped off my Solo

**satmanbasil** · 21-12-10, 23:37

you would imagine will all this snow around santa would go back to using his sleigh and leave the van at home

looks like there are many happy new solo owners like myself this week

it is a great piece of kit, am well impressed

**satmanbasil** · 22-12-10, 13:43

Hi mate

Didnt get a ho ho ho from my santa just a grunt...sign here lol

Have to agree the solo if far better than i thought it would be even s*y Italy looks more stable with less pixeling than it did with my dream 7020 which after all these years service is now resting in retirement lol

regards

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to One n All

received my duo/1tb drive today, but im stuck at work at the moment

admittedly i didnt buy from the site sponsor

, this is because i missed the xmas deadline for ordering so had to order from elsewhere for me to get it before the holidays.

im sure it said last orders lunch time 21st December - i may of been looking at a different site

anyway, didnt want to risk ordering on last day of deadline incase the weather delayed it longer.

edit: yep it was sponsors

Cut off time for orders to be dispatched in time for Christmas delivery will be 12PM 21st December 2010

i ordered at 3pm 21st December and arrived today

Am sure if you'd spoke to the sponser he'd have let you know whether he would've been able to get it to you

must remember for next time

Just to let members know that due to some new orders being placed over christmas we've decided to re-open for order processing only between 29th and 30th December. Revised Christmas opening hours here http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/...formation_id=6
