I am also looking at getting a Technomate.Not too worried about pvr but is the TM600 a bit easier to patch because it has usb? Or should I just save a few quid and get the TM500.Thanks.

Patch via USB is not recommended although possible, the process is a little buggy.

Anyway you can patch/install images on the 5/600 via Ethernet or via the serial port via a null modem cable.

Nothing difficult about either method tbh, and you'll get support here on SU if you buy one.

considering it's not much extra ££ i'd say the TM600 is probably worth it, never know when you might want PVR or use usb for swap files/epg data etc, and i think TM600 has larger internal memory.
