After doing a lot of research at this site ,wouldnt a guy think its almost time to purchase another reciever ?
The Nfusion Nova is apparently starting to show its gloom and the viewsat ultra has been sleeping for some time now as shown in the posts .
Does a man wait a couple weeks after what was explained by Cyphris and his viewsat dilema or should a man just go out and purchase a new supported nfusion and continue watching televison ?
I am told most people are sticking it out with their Nfusion Nova,s
Support for the newer nfusion receivers is great given the N3 problems is it not ?
Been told that the Nfusion has better IKS performance and more channels up then the K box and the sonicview I hub . Can anyone support this claim ?
Not sure of what else to ask but would like to see some feedback if possible .
I put this post in the rumour mill becuase most everyone is still undertermined what to do yet .
got any suggestions with reasonable answers and an explanation as to why you would side towards a specific receiver ?

there's a difference between a gamble and a calculated risk. FTA is a true hobby with No guarantees! Any solution is a Solution >>> enjoy your choice... IKS/Telefonica

There is a new sat. that will be put in orbit on Sept. 29, 2009.....AMAZONA 2 !! 61W.....It's coverage will be from Alaska to Tierra Del Fuego in S/A.....It will have 54KU transponders....It will capture Telefonica which is a South America provider ( Spanish DIK)...This provider also has some channels in English ( like HBO, Espn, etc. etc.) but mostly in spanish. Just google Amazona 2 for more info. on the launching of this sat.
Once you receive this sat. Dik & Bev. will not be a concern to you as this provider is N2 Encryption. So be HAPPY!!

I own The Nfusion Phoenix and The Kbox Prodigy ...Both are great units ...Also it depends on what u are looking for in a unit ...Both units have there ups and downs but...Nfusion has more channels than the Kbox but Kbox has more more international channels...Also Kbox can run Iks and Standalone and Nfusion is only Iks at this time . So either way u wont be disapointed.
Good Luck on ur choice.
Ps..You could do what i did and i couldnt decide either so i bought both lol
