    Need an advertisement translated - Deutsch (?)

    ADVERTS
    Can anyone translate this? It appears to possibly be in German.

    Die neue AZBox Premium Plus mit Twin Tuner Betrieb wird ab 01.12.2009 ausgeliefert.



    Jetzige und auch die in Zukunft folgende Software ist mit allen Modellen kompaktible.

    Wireless Tastatur funktioniert selbstverständlich auch an allen Modellen.

    Vom Austausch sind nur die AZBox HD Premium betroffen die vor dem 18.11.2009 gekauft worden sind.


    Thank you

    You can use babilfish, just copy and paste unless it is a image file. If you google you should find a site that will take the pictures and all and create a German to English translation in HTML>

    It's German, not Dutch.
    It's for the new AZBox "Premium +", all new hardware for true dual tuner, so they say.
    ++++++++++++++++++
    The new AZBox Premium plus with twin Tuner enterprise is delivered starting from 01.12.2009. Current one and also in the future following software are kompaktible with all models. Wireless keyboard functions naturally also at all models. From the exchange only the AZBox hp Premium was bought before that the 18.11.2009 is concerned.
    ++++++++++++++++++

    I read somewhere that it was $150 euro to upgrade an older premium
    "I tried that once"

    Thanks Lak,

    By the way, Deutsch is German for... well, German. I didn't mean Dutch. Thanks for doing the translation.

    I am assuming that the date code as written here is DAY / MONTH / YEAR - Therefore, December 1st, 2009.

    I take it, from another post on another forum (which is Europe based) that Opensat is presenting a "TRUE" dual tuner AZBox Premium - the "PREMIUM PLUS" model on that date. A model which will indeed support dual tuners.

    I have been hearing rumors that the original Premium model was advertised as such, but was found to have hardware defects (moreso akin to limitations in design rather than defects) that prevented this and that it could not be overcome by any new software programming.

    Therefore, it seems that these rumors may have actually been correct information (or just a very well educated guess) and that Opensat is now building a new Premium and Elite model referred to as the "Plus" versions which will have the hardware necessary to accommodate dual tuners properly.

    I also judge by the wording that the software/firmware will be compatible with all models.

    This is good news and bad news. If you already have an AZBox and were planning on using it as a dual tuner receiver, sounds like you are out of luck. If you were planning to buy one someday, it is good news as it means that it will actually function as designed.

    I wonder if Opensat will offer any exchange policies or credits for those who have already purchased one under the assumption that it would support dual tuners.

    I am glad that the second receiver that I tried to purchase resulted in problems with delivery. Now I will cancel that order and wait for the Premium Plus model to be available.

    Jscrimshaw,

    Excellent work! A bit more clear, but the last line is definitely confusing. Reads well, but I am not sure what they infer by it.

    Deutsch is German
    Yeah, I know. I just can't "read". LOL

    I think the last line means......
    If you purchased before 11/18/09, you need to exchange.
    Or implying, units purchased after 11/18/09, you are good to go.

    Putney,

    If that turns out to be an accurate or nearly accurate cost figure, I don't think that it would be worth upgrading an older model. The price seems rather steep. With the currency exchange rate, I expect that would amount to about $215.00 - $230.00 US.

    That's way too much for a refurbishment. You might as well just buy a new one outright and use the old one somewhere else (in another room, as a gift or sell as is to a friend who knows what the limitations are).

    I was just giving you a hard time on that, Lak. I kinda figured you read it fast and early in the morning.

    I am guessing, but it almost sounds to me as if they mean to say:

    "For all models purchased prior to 11/18/2009", that you have to pay for the upgrade (your Premium AZBox will be upgraded to the PLUS model or you will be provided with a refurbished and upgraded Premium AZBox model that someone else turned in).

    and then

    "For all models purchased post 11/18/2009" they (may) exchange it directly for an AZBox Premium PLUS model (new manufactured version). But maybe you still have to pay???

    ????????

    I guess we will find out in the near future what they really mean by this.
