i think really its a matter of preference, the Mag256 has finally been upgraded to a newer firmware but it took quite some time since the release for this to occur. The update did address a lot of issues but there are still lingering issues. The Mag 256 also costs more then the neweest revised 254 that has built in wireless.

The GUI on all the middlewares has always been a little sore on the eyes if you have come from a Dreamlink T1 or Kodi, i wish they would really consider a serious overhaul for their next iteration of Stalkware.
