Dune HD Lite 53D
The first Dune player to use a Sigma 865x chipset, in this case the 8653. The specific choice of chipset in interesting because this is a less powerful version of the 865x compared to that used in other players like the WDTV live, Egreat S1A (8655 version).

In terms of feature set this Dune is also slightly different. It has an external full SATA port and is available with an internal HDD installed but only in the factory and not by the user. The unit is available in many colours. Specs would indicate that no 7.1 HD audio formats are supported, which is dissapointing since the chipset does support them.

Ultimately, people will buy this player because the firmware is likely to be better than the rest and the build quality will be robust. We have not seen it so can't comment ourselves so will update this page when we have more info.!
