Any experience with Echostar DVB/Analog receivers?

I've read all I can here, and don't find a thing.

This seems to be the ultimate:

C/Ku digital and analog
PVR
MP3 player
36V positioner


Says it does NTSC, so just trying to figure if there is some other reason I am missing that it can't be used in the US. Sure would be nice to have FTA and analog all in one box that can drive a positioner too. Anyone?

36v positioner is for a BUD dish (i.e no Disqec motors)
EPG is useless in NA.
Can the HD be upgraded?

Does the reverse of a VBOX II exist?

Will need a converter for the SCART

Exactly. Not interested in those rinky dink diseqc motors anymore. SCART gives the ability to stick a component out on it.
