You'll love it! I love mine! I upgraded a few months ago and quickly added a 4TB external HDD to it! So many movies, up to 5 different recordings at one time, more than the standard 50 event recording possibilities, and much faster guide speeds and search speeds.

Whoa. I did not know this supported external storage. 👍

Bought a self-portrait of sorts...

Upgraded to my HD STB to a Genie HD DVR. :D

How is the input lag on that STB? How responsive are the touch buttons? The lag on the 4 HD23-700s in my house is plain horrid. I can't believe they release STBs with a intolerable amount of lag. I might upgrade the equipment in my house too, or just wait for a STB with HDMI 2.0 support.

They're more responsive than my old HR23-600, but I'll hardly ever be feeling around for the sensor as I'll be using my Harmony, but it's definitely better.

Nfl shop has an extra 40% off sale items, so including shipping (£17) it came to £52. Very cheap for the limited jersey, and i needed a jersey to wear to the international series games. Revis will always be considered a Jet, so I'm fine having this. Hopefully Nike will have a Wilkerson and/or Richardson limited jersey soon :)

Bought this for hooking my computers to my 40" Sony Bravia HDTV. Quality looks really good. Not outstanding but really good. Visual quality is a little reduced going from VGI to HDMI.

Some NFC tags for my phone, between them and Tasker I should be able to automate my phone to do everything I want.

Well, I just made my biggest purchase yet. A 2012 Volkswagen Polo 66TDI, auto (7 speed DSG). Second-hand, pretty much like brand new. The previous owner kept it in absolutely mint condition (he's also got a 25 year old Land Rover which looks brand new). She's beautiful and I love her and I want to sleep on the backseat every night from now on.

Now that my pc is hooked to my 40 HDTV I am able to sit on the couch and play without ANY wires!! Plus the mouse has enough buttons so I really don't need the keyboard at all. :D Nice to be getting back into pc gaming again. Been many years.

Wireless Keyboard and wireless mouse. Mouse has 11 programmable buttons.
