I was just over at the FridgeFTA site and saw this post:

Unfortunately he doesn't say anything about the things I'd most like to know about, such as whether that extra processing power will let it receive 4:2:2, whether recordings can be saved to network shares or accessed from other computers on the network, whether you can schedule more than just a small number of recordings (eight is NOT enough!), etc. Also, in the past Amikos have been priced much too high for me to take a chance on, and he doesn't mention what the price of this one will be. But I am tentatively interested, and hope additional details will be posted soon!

The major differences with Mini HD SE are on the inside. Instead of the 400MHz ALi3606, Mini HD SE runs the latest dual core ALi3511 @ 600MHz. You can definitely tell that it is packing a ton more horsepower than any previous ALi box. It boots fast and responds pretty much instantly to everything. There really isn't the little lag you see with other boxes when opening menus or using features.
