My old(er) TM box is dying slowly I think so... given that I've not been following the techie development of stbs over the last few years, what should I replace it with? I want a box that will drive a motorised dish, be flash upgradable with patches to unscramble 'certain' channels for educational purposes, softcams etc and ability to connect to c*rds etc, or even (?) allow internet channels to stream (who knows what they can now do?). So advice please. Willing to pay up to £150.

I have a Vu+ Solo2 that I'm very happy with, but it's a bit out of your price range. There is also the Solo SE - cheaper but single tuner. They are both linux boxes so very flexible, there are various different images available. Don't expect *any* help here with setting it up to do anything that isn't 100% legal, though :)
 
Technomate are supposedly about to release new receivers in the next few weeks, might be worth waiting if you've had one before.
