I don't own a VS, so their fix means nothing to me. Having said that, I must give some props when it is due.

Took them about 5 days for a cardless fix for what appears to be a tough ECM. Well done!

The next question has to be what this means for the future? I suspect DN will try one more mega ECM, and if VS nails it again, they would be forced to declare Rom102 as fully compromised. A card swap will be inevitable.

But, even with a card swap, a $180 for a new VS would be a good buy. A card swap will take a long time to finalise, so you would get your money's worth.

Last week people were speculating how high plastic prices would go if FTA remained down; this week we will start to ask how high a VS will go if everyone else (FTA) stays down. They have proved that they can release fixes fast, and that means bigger sales.

Hmmm. I've given up trying to find reason in this business.

Bottom line is...financially, If U are into hacking DN and Bev, purchasing a GENUINE Viewsat ($159) now will pay for itself within 1-2 months, depending on how much PPV's and sports packages U watch....compared to paying for equivalent cable or satellite..what will cost U is SOME TIME, to learn and READ how to setup and use the receiver..

and Viewsat has proven itself the past 3 ECM's as the first and best software provider that will keep U watching TV..no other receiver manufacturer even comes close to Viewsat in support..

AMEN!!! I wish everyone would buy a VS! If you r brand new to the FTA game, would take no more than 2 hrs of reading, then u would be able to set up and program ur own box!! EASY!!

I own a Fortec lifetime Ultra and a Viewsat Extreme ... also i sub to Bell Express View.
I would recomand buying a Viewsat! But I am not giving up on my fortec just yet. BL may come up with something soon . If not.. at least we have locals on fortec/pansat.. etc...it's better than nothing at all.
