Default Looks like a contender for the DM8000 has finally been released, welcome the VU+ Duo!

As the title guys, looks like a contender for the DM8000 has finally been released, welcome the Marusys VU+ DUO Twin Tuner HD PVR DVB-S2 Satellite Receiver. This is NOT a DM8000 clone and it legally runs Enigma 2 open source firmware also the PLi team have committed to producing image support for these receivers. Best of all it don't cost much than a over priced DM800

I've attached a couple of photo's and data sheets that I've found also see this youtube video: -

I've decided to take a chance on one of these receivers, I'll report back once I've received it and have it setup.
