My short review on new HD HEVC STB:

=> The EPG loading time is the fastest i have seen.
=> Sometimes when u power on the STB, it doesnt turn on over the remote. It gets stuck, u need to reboot it. Looks like a bug
=> The Firmware is not latest as compared to the current HD STB. Like the UI Judder effect are missing, Signal Test is still BER whereas existing STB have CNR. This would be solved over updates in coming months
=> There is WiFi option in network settings, however it may need a dongle, not sure.
=> I felt the PQ is same in both new and existing HD STB. Other members pls check.
=> USB recording is not yet activated, pressing the play/pause button will open a message about USB recording
=> Remote feels like premium, and good quality, powerful too.
=> Web Apps are good, different types.
=> Some options are locked, plan button is not yet activated.
=> STB has resolution option 1080p which is very good, was not available in old HD STB
