Thanks for the links, it'll help quite a bit, also I'll be sure to contact Gordan, probably right after this email. This will be my first attempt at using Red Sleeve other than the Trim Slice that I ended up getting rid of as it just never quite worked out for me and wasn't all that interesting. If the Mk 802 works out well I may work on the Uhost 2 next since I don't have any real use for it as a TV stick until August.
