Thanks for the info, its nice to know that there are 50 "beta" testers out there, it will be even nicer if Dream Multimedia made any announcement on when they intend to release the DM8000.

I am new to the Dream scene but I would like to buy an 8000 instead of an 800 as there is no point in getting a model that will be shortly superceded by a better model.

Is one month from now a reasonable time to expect release of the 8000 or will that be crystal ball gazing.
