Dreambox DM8000

ok not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I've been reading up on the specs of this box and looks pretty good, I assume the "addon" card can be used to pick up DVB-T and the rest of the freeview satellite channels.
I've looked at the Dream Multimedia website, considering it has New Zealand on their resellers map there are none listed, same goes for Australia.
Anyone know how to get one of these units and what its likely going to cost?

Thanks.

Gidday Shadownz.

Your Looking at $2200 NZD to get one in.
Priced one up a few weeks back myself, Shipped from Holland.

Saddly the state of our NZ Dollar doesnt help.

OUCH!
maybe a case of waiting for it to drop in price and the exchange rate to get a bit better

if you only want HD over satellite, I understand that the Octagons are better value. However you can't get much HD over satellite in NZ, even on C-Band

I would go for the cheaper option & get the DB800HD. I brought mine foe £320 + added a 320 GB SATA hard drive. Its Great for CS & the pictures great.
