I'm leaning towards the Cool*sat because of the USB Hard drive and internal flash memory + timeslip watch and record. The Viewsat has a faster Processor and a great reputation ! ........... WHAT DA YA THINK ! ? ? |

Silver Member Username: 1tina_chickPost Number: 119 Registered: Mar-06 | Thanks LK I Like both but I don't have enough time for 2 tuners. Yes I know you can watch and record, I work alot so I can only watch a little tv. A friend of mine has the Viewsat ultra and loves it - only 1 tuner. Thanks for your time ! |
