BREAKING NEWS - Viewsat MaxHD NEW High Definition Receiver Out NOW

[FTA Deals]

Guys, it came in a flash! Almost too quiet of an introduction.



The Viewsat MaxHD is here. This will REPLACE the now discontinued Viewsat 9000 HD.

This is a 1080i HIGH DEFINITION receiver with 200mhz/32mb SDRAM just like the Viewsat Ultra, fully functional PVR to USB 2.0, HDMI connectivity, and the new Viewsat On Screen Display.

We are getting these units fresh off the plane on 10/3/08.

Pre-Order yours today at our store, FTApros.com - Sonicview | Viewsat | Coolsat | Captive Works | Nfusion.

We will be lisiting it very soon on our main Viewsat | Official Retail Store site.

I will post more information about it as soon as we receive our units in. We only have 20 coming in next week and 1 will be for us to demo and test, so jump on it while you can and be the first to test the new Viewsat MaxHD!

Thanks
Mike

nice looking stb there mike.

[HotDish]

Now that's what I need! (I assume it doesn't need an optional 8psk card?)

[jarvisjn]

It looks like it retails for $299.00. Perhaps the cost of the 9000 was too high for the cheap FTA ers!

[storman666]

8psk built in Mike?

[cisco123]

kinda sounds like it?

[storman666]

For 3 bills thats pretty good.Well worth it if the 8psk is built in.

Looks like SV8000 will slow down a bit.
a lot with the 8psk built in.

[storman666]

Yeah man,thats a good deal if its built in,3 bills is good price for that STB if it has the board already in it.

This looks like a nice box but its not dual tuner or pvr ready. Seems like it only has 1 usb input also. SV will blow this away with their 360HD when it comes out.

[cribber]

Just read the manual and it has two usb ports. One front and one back. Also it will record.

we have to wait about a week to get the 3rd part files

[SF2AZ]

Has anyone confirmed that the 8psk is built in some listings only say MPEG2 compliant. Thanks
