What about UK market? All english viewers are unable to use Duo2 to catch terrestrial signal! Bad luck. Every USB sticks have NEVER the same quality like internal tuners.

Why do you say that when Duo2 has Plug & Play Tuners in theory you could have 1 x DVB-S2 Dual plug & Play Tuner and the other Tuner could be DVB-T/C

I see one UK supplier has Price already up @ £519.95

If you are going to wait for the future you will never EVER by anything electronic.

Sure 4k tv on the way, but then there will be 8k and 16k tv not far behind, and then 32k, 64k (you get the idea).

Duo2 is 1.3ghz dual core, who knows Ultimo2 (if there ever is one), could be 1.3ghz quad core, or maybe Duo3 (again if there ever is one) could be 3.2ghz hex core.

So if you are looking to upgrade your Ultimo soon, then yes imo the Duo2 would be worth upgrading too.

That is what you may expect, but personally I doubt this very much. There is abundant good quality 4K Master/Source material available and some 6K and occasionally 8K, but that is the maximum there is for existing movies. New (better) recording technologies are to be expected but all existing movie material in the vaults can only be upscaled. It's all about the quality of the sources available and that is a limit we are hitting today.

I think you misunderstood. 4K will come without any doubt. How successful it will be on short term? I do share your scepsis there.
Will 8K=> 16K => 32K follow soon? My guess it won't as there is no (good quality) source/master material available on any scale.

Will come for sure for professional use (live transmissions) and for high-end users, not for common users.
