Does anyone know when the Dreambox 500 PVR will be out? This is the new DM500 series with integrated 2.5 inch Seagate hardrive for recording. Looks really cool.

Sometime March 2006?

Is this going to be different to the current "new" 500 with ALPS tuner? or is the plug in module in the pic the same (not found pics of insides with ALPS to compare).

If the plug in tuner shown is ALPS, then perhaps the current "new" boxes could have one retro fitted?

About to buy a DM500 but I will record to a share on my little fileserver (don't want PC on 24x7) in garage, but an internal 2.5 drive appeals for swap space and some PVR storage...

Seem crazy to have "new" ALPS tuner version now and HW change in March? or is it inline with the 7025 release?

OB

My thoughts the same. I was comtemplating if I should get a DM500si now, but the PVR is a just wonderful making it very attractive. March release was just my guess, I also heard someone mention as early as mid January 2006.

I was hoping someone would know more about this product and release date.

"The "new" DM 500 PVR has a pluggable plug & play single tuner either for DVB-S, -C, and –T"

Take a look at this link from official Dream multimedia:
