If you really need all that extra stuff the DMS3 has, get one. If not get the Messiah 2.

i havent heard much about the reliability of DMS3, so i would personally go for Messiah 2.

although the extra DMS3 options sound pretty cool!

DMS3 is a joke. Most of the reliable retailers that I get M2's from have suspended selling dms3 until it's more relibale. Coupled onto that it works on similar technology to magic chips and hence it has inherited the magic problems.

At the mo it will be a lot more reliable to get M2 and if u really need dvd region free get ar2 or dvdregion x and it will probably still work out cheaper than getting dms 3 installed.

Regards

I just downtrated the magic 2 to 90% in the light of Messiah 2 and DMS3.

But Hyungsup is right - a magic 2 is OK.

It supports an mp3 player, divx player, dvd region free, macrovision off, and a flash upgrade feature.
