My latest toy from ebay is a Dripstone 301 HD receiver - Dripstone 301 HD Digital Satellite Receiver DVB-S2 Tuner DVR HDMI USB High Def.
It is the smallest stand alone HD receiver I have ever seen - roughly the same size as my 2.5 usb external drive, with HDMI out, AV output, IR dongle with normal size remote (larger than receiver), PVR capable, 2 USB ports and is 12V supplied with wallwart. Has DiSEqC 1.0 and 1.1. Blind scan is as quick as my Openbox and seems accurate - only tried it so far on 13E, 19.2E and 28E. Picture quality is good and the UI is adequate - no frills basic. I believe it is actually made in Israel.
It seems an ideal receiver for camping or those with very little shelf space.
