Rob I bought my Sonicview yesterday, and the picture quality is really excellent. Downloading the bin is really easy whih the USB key ... For the support frequency I think is at least as viewsat. The only negative think I've noticed is the quality of the guide, really a poor information ...
Rob buy sonicview..b.c lots of people had problems loading the bin's with usb.. never heard any problem from sonic view.. + sonic view always get files before viewsat..
I have a brand new ultra but a few days ago I bought an nfusion. Why not pay a few bucks more for something better. At least I have a backup reciever now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- thanks sada. that was excellent however he doesn't mention the hooking up the receiver via ethernet. I know how you would do it but once you plug in the cable at both the reciever and the computer....then what. again...excellent link! thanks

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- basically u just plug in network cable to any of the port on your wireless router and the other end goes on back of rec... it will automatically detect intenet connection.. u need network cable .. cost $ 10 .. same cable as you use on modem to comp (white cable).. after that u will see option on ur rec remote menu,ins internet ..wher u can see ur ip adress current sw version ..and by clicking on update u can update ur rec.. u don't need to unplug ur rec or anything. as long as ur internet is connected ur rec will work.. if ur rec is far away from wireless router . u need to buy a netgear cost about $ 50.. and u can just plug in to socket and the other wire goes to tv. so netgear detects internet from ur wireless router.. only if ur router is in some other room or else.. hope it helps.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sada, thanks very much...that helps alot. I would have to get the netgear as my tv is downstairs but the wireless router is upstairs. I'm assuming I can get it on ebay just as I would the nfusion receiver itself. thanks for the info again...top notch!
