I don't own high enough boots for that.

I don't like the Pit because some people that I thought were credible in the regular forums turn out to be full of it.
I find life more pleasant outside the Pit.
The next pit I go to will be the sburgh.

They're not sending them out to offices, either. We've been out of them for 2 weeks. I don't think they were intended for mass distribution yet, possibly
The Snap needs Software version U717. The one the sent you probably has U705 so you won't see any improvement until your software updates
Hmmmm, now who did that???You could always post what you really think and go out in a flame of glory.
AFAIK right now, auto-updates are temporarily and briefly suspended for some unknown reason, but manual updates still work.
Well Dish came through!! Downloaded U717 on to my HWS last night. Just checked our SJ (superjoey) and it is now as fast as the HWS was after installing the SNAP a while back..
Good job Dish and thanks again to Scott for sending me one

As one of those that bought a Hopper Snap from the Ebay seller, I can confirm that not only is the HWS lightning fast, but also the Super Joey. I'd forgotten what it feels like since the CUI to have a Hopper running at full speed. Since I don't need 16 tuners (5 is enough for me) or 4K, I no longer need to consider a H3/Joey 3 upgrade to save me from the annoying sluggishness.
I plugged my purchased snap in last night HWS(U719). Blazing fast...
I will compare with my 2nd HWS (no snap) in the coming days.

Update: I noticed the Snap module received another firmware update (S153) a couple of days ago. Since the Snap module doesn't provide additional features/functionality (all it does is make earlier Hoppers about as fast as the H3) it's unknown what the update is for. Possibly support for multiple Hoppers?
Nope as far as I know just other backend fixes.
When dual hopper snap support is available you will hear about it here.
Believe me when I say it is money well spent.
Out of curiosity- anyone here have two snaps employed on a multiple HWS setup?

We tried it and it screwed up both units. Kept seeing the Refresh In Progress screen.
