True but the 4900 has the advantage of being able to add an internal 2.5" HDD/SSD (like the U5), making it ideal and a lot neater for those recording large amounts (or downloading VOD locally).

I installed a 256GB SSD initially, now replaced it with a 1TB SSD in my 4900 and it works quite well.  Don't need to use internal storage for recordings, and neither a USB key.

But in terms of CPU power, yes the X5/U5 have the advantage.   But keep in mind that the X5 and U5 are newer, so there may be a few little glitches initially, but Buzz is addressing them quickly as they appear, as usual.

The 4900 however is getting harder and harder to find.  Buzztvglobal canada site no longer lists it, and neither on amazon canada (direct from buzz).
