We recently received the nFusion Phoenix for review. Right out of the box you can tell this is a quality piece of hardware. The chassis is sturdy and attractive and it comes with all the cables you need to connect it to your TV or enterntainment center. In addition to the standard set of features most FTA units have, this unit also has an ethernet port already built in, enabling a set of multi-media rich options to be delivered online as well as via satellite.
You won't find a more affordable or more stable Ethernet Enabled FTA receiver on the market. Priced to move at only $219.99, you can purchase the Phoenix or its little sister the Solaris at http://www.efta.us today!!
Just got this Sonicview 360 Elite to test. Its Awesome!!!!! Easy to setup and Fast channel scans. With its dual tuner you can record one show while watching any other channel at the same time. Not just the channels on the same transponder.
From the time I took it out of the box it took approx. 20 min to completely setup including adding a USB hard drive to it to use for recording. You can update the flash via USB (has 3 USB connections- 2 on the back and 1 on the front) or with a null modem cable.
The only issue I found is that during playback of a recorded show the display showing the time left, etc. is always showing on the bottom of the screen. I am sure they will address this in a future software update. All my other PVR units cost a lot more than this unit, so if your looking for a PVR and are strapped for cash I would strongly recommend this unit. The unit also has a great Picture in Picture function which allows you to watch 2 shows at the same time. Great for sports or porn, or watch both at once!
The Sonicview Elite and Premier 360 receivers differ only that the Elite is dual tuner and the Premier is single tuner, both are PVR's when combined with an external USB hard drive.
The Sonicview Elite 360 PVR and Premier 360 PVR are both available at http://www.efta.us/a verified Premium Sonicview Dealer.
Arianespace is on track for its seventh Ariane 5 launch in 2009. The launch, of a French military reconnaissance satellite, is scheduled for Dec. 9. Meanwhile Intelsat-14 isn’t going anywhere ... not yet, anyway. The satellite, which was originally scheduled for launch last Saturday, has been hobbled by an electrical problem with the Atlas V rocket. No news yet on when the bird, designed to replace the aging Intelsat 1R, will fly.•
We’re not out of the woods (not hardly) but at least consumers are shelling out more for media. According to research NPD, Americans are now spending around $115 per month per household on subscription media services. That’s up 7% from a year ago.
The exception to this rule is (no surprise here) print media which are down from last year. But on the upside are television, DVRs, satellite radio, subscription music, mobile phone data, internet access, online gaming plus Netflix and and the like.•
With the economy still sputtering, virtual meetings have become an increasingly big business. From large companies seeking to limit travel costs to hotels seeing to boost revenues, live, 2-way broadcasts from multiple locations are fast growing beyond the “novelty” stage. Now add another twist to the story with world-class broadcast satellite providing full virtual meeting capabilities from a restaurant chain.
A collaboration between The Capital Grille restaurant chain and ConneXion360 has launched virtual meeting capabilities connecting private dining rooms in all 40 Capital Grille locations. Said Capital Grille president John Martin, "With satellite broadcasting technology in all of our restaurants, we invite our guests to hold meetings or presentations in multiple cities at once, while enjoying our exceptional service, award-winning food and wine, and the comfortable surroundings of our private dining rooms."
No word on what the meetings might cost but, hey, it’s got to beat a bunch of plane and hotel expenses.
N3 Rumor Updates
First some N3 facts:
All FTA receivers which do not have IKS support (ethernet port on receiver and broadband internet connection required) are no longer working to receive Dishnet or BEV. Many of the most popular brands have Telefonica fixes going, but this is not much use unless you speak fluent spanish. You can still use any [...]
