Hi All,
I'm in the market for an upgrade from my 2S (which has developed an intermittent "I'm going to cut out and stop working until you reboot me 5 times" fault). I've decided that I want a box which supports an internal HDD and has a faster CPU - hoping to whiz around the EPG - and am happy to spend ~£200.
So I'm weighing up the ET8500 and the Solo2. I was pretty much sold on the ET8500 but have read a few comments in various posts talking about how the picture quality on the Solo2 is far better.
Can anyone who has experience with both boxes comment on this? Is the quality bump on the Solo2 worth the extra 50 quid? I'm assuming both are streets ahead of the 2S - it wasn't until I started researching these new boxes that I realised how crap the picture quality was...
