The DM 8000 support multiple HDTV standards, including MPEG4/H.264 - that to be implemented by Sky in the UK! An improved power supply unit is included which will finally solve all previous PSU-related problems for good . A USB 2 port is also included as well as the standard RS232 serial port and Fast Ethernet port (no Gigabit ) It looks like the front of the box will house a multi-function (10) card reader so that you can easily load/access data, photos, mp3 etc. The LCD display has increased in size to 3,5x 5.5 cm. Naturally Linux is still the operating system, however it will be packaged in an 'easier to use form'.
We can only guess that means a complete re-write of Enigma. These details are still very sketchy. More news as we find it out
