Duo2 a good replacement for Sky?

Hi

I would like to get away from being tied to Sky, which I only really pay for to be able to record programmes and for cartoon network (my son, I promise!)

I really want to try a duo2 but is it a good replacement? it would be connecting to my sky dish and I need the menus to be as simple / sky like as possible for the family to be able to use it without confusion.

is it possible to make the EPG sky like? I've not had a chance to play with a Vu+ box so not really too sure...

thanks in advance, and sorry for asking such a dumb question

Indeed, though perhaps I could have been clearer. other than Cartoon network, i'm not interested in any Sky Channels. My interest was in making the box behave like a Sky box in terms of look and feel.

I too the plunge and have been playing with the configuration, I think I've worked out:

Yes, there's an EPG / menu system to replicate Sky.
I need to try and work out how to install a bouqet? that will give me channel numbers?
Cartoon Network isn't available unless through Sky or Virgin :(
I'm probably going to lose a lot of days playing with it!
