About to buy a 360... I think. Question about updating.
From the bit of research I have been doing, I am considering either the 360 Elite or the CNX Trio. It appears to me the 360 is more popular thus just has more activity on the forums and such. But it seems like it is having to receive updates to stay up often?
Does anyone happen to have a 360 Elite and a CNX Trio, and is able to give me their opinions on the two boxes. A buddy of mine has a Trio, but I would like to test something different.

I have neither of these receivers however I believe the big advantage the 360elite has is the fact it has 2 tuners so you can watch any channel while recording any other channel. As well I believe with a DishPro Splitter you can accomplish all this with just one cable feed!
