OK... I've done a bit of research, but was wondering what everyone here thinks as well...

Should I go with a Coolsat 8100HD, Viewsat 9000HD, nFusion, SonicView or something else?

I live in Toronto, and will want access primarily to Dishnet Sports as well as Bell...

Not sure but a question would be --- Can the Coolsat HD even receive Charlie HD channels? Believe I had read once that it can not get Charlie as there is no option to add a module..

Not sure but I would not want you to buy a receiver for FTA use and NOT be able to get Charlie.

As I have no HD receiver I can not recommend a receiver but if I were going to purchase one I might consider the Sonicview 360HD. Oh, Oh, it has not been released for sale yet. But hopefully just after the first of the year.

By the time Sonicview releases their next HD receiver it may be something completely different than the envisioned SVHD360. Regardless the SVHD8000 is unquestionably the best HD receiver out there at this time although the newly released Viewsat MAXHD looks like a nice receiver.

What about the new viewsat MAXHD I hear thats a good 1

I have a viewsat hd 9000 and it works great for me i bought a 500 gb hard drive for it for the pvr function and works great

so my question is then is it really worth buying a HD receiver at this time, was going to but a distributer told me to hold off to wait for"changes" ?? any info?

I have the nfusion hd and luv it, at the moment it is the only one to open the nflst, (which is in nag3)In my opinion this is very promising for the future. JMO

im looking my self , 4 one, but am a little skeptical, as too what 2 buy or when.

I took the leap last week and bought a VSMAXHD, it's a great unit. I add a HDD for the DVR function and I'm loving it!

Make it open. There are other models working perfectly with owners (like me) very happy with them...
