The Amstrad which you have is one of the very first release, so unfortunately its going to be slow, my sister has one and it is equally slow.

Its more likely to die first Pov. but whilst there are no plans as far as I know, to change the LNB or tuner frequencies, it may well be too slow for some services eventually.

it was took away by sky for repairs and brought back with a few faults like the tele phone line ect..

what will happen when it dies will sky take the old one away and get me a new one.

They may do if you threaten to cancel when it breaks again.
