Got back from out of town yesterday afternoon and was more than pleasantly surprised to find a "SNAP" in the mailbox (thank you Scott!). After unpacking stuff and catching up I decided to plug it into my HWS (HWS/Super Joey). Last week I had updated the software to U715 in hopes of maybe getting one.
The SNAP was immediately recognized and told me it was installed and ready to go. I went into the diagnostic screen and confirmed that it was there.
On the HWS I played with all the menus/DVR/etc. I then pulled up the guide and paged up and down through it. What a difference!! Everything is lightning fast now where before it was sluggish and stuttering. Great job on this little device Dish
.
I then went to the SJ and ran thru the same scenario that I did on the HWS. The menus and guide are faster than they were previously but no where near as fast as the HWS. There is still some stuttering when paging through the guide. All other menus are very adequate for a good user experience. Not sure why but I guess it could do with the processing power of the SJ itself.
Overall a great update and I'm glad that Dish had the foresight to look into something like this to speed up the H1/H2 receivers.
Happy camper- Gerry
