Vu+ Duo2 preview
Vu+ Duo2 CPU and Ram
The Vu+ Duo2 will have a dual core 1300 MHz CPU which of course means fast boot like the Vu+ Solo2. Included is also plenty of ram with 2 GB and 1 GB Flash. The ram is given a big boost compared to the Solo2
PiP is not a problem even with HD channels .
Vu+ Duo2 3.2″ Graphical Color LCD front display
Brand new feature on Vu+ Duo2 is the 3.2″ Graphical Color LCD on the front of the receiver. We expect to see many ways of using this. Channel Logo’s for sure will be possible. Weather forecast anyone?
While it looks cool we guess the interest in this feature varies from person to person. Sure it looks cool but is is really useful? What do you think?
Vu+ Duo2 Built in WiFi and GigaBit Ethernet port
The Vu+ Duo2 will be easy to connect to your home network and the Internet. It will have built in WiFi with no need to use an external USB WiFi adapter.
As is the case with the Vu+ Solo2 the new Vu+ Duo2 will also offer a GigaBit Ethernet port.
Vu+ Duo2 internal PVR
The Vu+ Duo2 will support a 2.5″/3.5″ SATA hard drive.
