Ultimo v Duo

[Ev0]

sounds very nice if it is true and a Duo with swappable tuners would go down very nicely. personally i'm waiting for the release of the twin dvb-s2 tuners my self. i recon a uno with one of those installed would spell the end for the mighty duo. unless the duo also goes for swappable tuners of course.

Agreed it would be a nice upgrade thats for sure.

The twin dvb s2 tuners will be great, just a shame e2 / dvbapp2 has a limitation of only 4 tuners, as I think a 6 tuner ultimo would be awesome

There has been a Special Edition (brushed aluminium), but only limited to 300pcs if I remember well.

That is not true: E2 has no build in limitation to the number of tuners.

Thats good news then, I was under the impression (not sure why now) that 4 tuners was the limit E2 could cope with.

If it can handle 6, and these twin dvb-s2 tuners are reasonably priced then I might have to invest in a couple

Yeah i was always under the same assumption that E2 it self was limited to 4 tuners at any one time, however this was debunked by pli when asked about it, so i'm not sure what to think now LOL.

You know all that was, was the Marusys MS850s that never went on sale (or if it did, it wasn't for long).

I think most people (including myself) are/were mislead by the fact that skins present a maximum of 4 tuners in the infobar etc.
Time to change that then

This is about tuners, not LNB's.
And E2 can handle 64 LNB's (see here for details), not tried myself

Yeh sure does. but Marusys is the partent company of Vu+

[Ev0]

What I don't understand about either box, is they were going to be sold as xmbc based box's, but neither seem to have made it to market.

And even now, there is no xbmc vu+ box, but if you do some in depth googling (other search engines are avaliable) they are basicly the Duo and Uno but with minor changes / updates.
