Octagon have just launched a new receiver, but it's not the SX88+
I wonder if they will reply to my comment...

World of Satellite got early stocks of the original SX88, so let's hope they're quick off the mark with the Plus.

WOS no longer sell it though, only 2 Octagons now, not sure whats happened there.
I hope they get it though as I've bought a few boxes from there and imho a good retailer.

Yes, I imagine they bought a volume batch and didn't re-order, knowing the SX88+ would render it obsolete.

No hits on Google (Other Search Engines are available), apart from our own discussion and one other Forum.

£50 plus pp, eh.

I assume that price includes VAT so basically it's the same price as the Edision Primo.

Shall I be cheeky and ask for pictures and specs?

This is hopeful.

And I assume the firmware is virtually identical to the original model so we won't be Beta Testers!
