I find that suggestion a little surprising . On my 24MB connection, a 1GB download takes about 10-15 minutes and is really no great issue.

I think this is getting a bit anal now.

If you ask a dozen disparate people and no one is interested "very few" seems fair if you are just making a casual comment. Not so if you are writing a newspaper headline.

I believe Bob_cat said not to expect anyting soon.

When it comes to testing the HDR, how do Humax do their in-house testing? Is there a development team in UK? Somehow I doubt if freesat reception is very good in Korea , or Poland for that matter. You can only do so much with simulators.

I'm just curious and don't intend any criticism. The quality of the firmware in the shipped product is pretty good for a first product in its first few months, however the in-house testing is being done.

Very few people have Virgin cable.

Even fewer live within a mile of the exchange. Its well know that the average UK speed is around 3 MB. I'm lucky I get 5MB. However, a GB still takes some time.
