[QUOTE="digi247, post: 805434, member: 318162"] There has just been a price drop on the Ultimo down to £399 and i have seen the Duo at £269, but seeing as the Duo is nearing its 4th year and the Ultimo is barely 6 months old then probably get the Ultimo. Main differences would be BCM7335 chipset in the Duo running a Dual 405mhz processor with 128mb flash and 384mb ram. Where as the Ultimo has the BCM7413 chipset running similar 405mhs dual core CPU with 1gb Flash and 512mb ram plus the larger VFD that can also display channel VFD picons as well as onscreen and again has the capability for 3 tuners with 3 slots for Plug & Play tuners. And with the release probably September of the Dual Plug & Play DVB-S2 tuner will make the ultimo a quad tuner capable receiver, i dont understand why it cannot take a 3rd dual tuner to mke it 6 but must be something to do with either how the drivers handle the tuner cards.
