[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 521856, member: 256551"] With the Technomates there are 4 main families, 3000 series, 5000 series,6000 series and the 8000 series, plus the 9100 Linux box. Only the 3000 series can read a Sky card with the appropriate patch, but only the 3500 is PVR ready for recording (single tuner). The 5000 series are probably the most popular at the moment and are all PVR ready(single tuner). The 6000 series are HD and PVR ready, the 6900 also has built in Terrestrial. The 8000 series can have a built in HDD but still single tuner but it doesn't look like they are patchable. None of them do everything you want.:) Updating the software is very easy on the 1000 series and I presume it is for the others. Robbo:) [/QUOTE]
