[QUOTE="Sharkadder, post: 636314, member: 193449"] my 500-s is about 3 years old now, it is an original bought from an offer on a link which was mentioned on a hot deals in the uk website. The box has worked flawlessly really, i do have problems with turning my box on if it was left on a horizontal transponder as the motor just goes crazy (happens on every version of gemini i have tried and never used to do it). Other than that it still works great, my upgrade will be arriving probably next month in the way of a dreambox 8000 but the 500-s has served me well. The remote is fine, all buttons work and i don't even think that it has a scratch on it. The box has crashed a few times for reasons i haven't figured out in the past and times when it has crashed because it never liked the channel i flicked onto but that is about all. The box also has also been recorded by me to of been on for 44 days solid without fail, pretty good for something that gathers more dust on the top than most electronics lol. I wouldn't recommend people to buy a 500-s these days, the chances of more modern boxes crashing are a lot slimmer these days, plus hard drive space is minimal, so it's worth investing me thinks. :-) [/QUOTE]
