Can anyone tell me the difference between the Technomate 1000 CI and the 1500 CI

Hi,
I have read as much as I can about these two machines, however can anyone tell mw what the difference between the two is other than the £80 for the 1000 and £120ish the the 1500.

I will be wanting to get a patched machine and looking to the future maybe a Dragon, or Matrix CAM.

Any help would be most welcome!

Cheers

Paulh.

1000ci has 1 CI (common interface) for a cam. 1500ci+ has 1 CI and a card reader.

Thanks for the quick reply Cableman,

Can I ask you, is there any advantage to having the card reader on the 1500 if I have a CAM in the 1000(which is patched anyway)?

Any help would be most welcome!

The 1500 is better in so many ways looks preformance etc.
