More confused about PC sat card selection

I have been avidly reading this forum as I want to buy a Sat PC card to allow me to record FTA Sky channel i.e. a PVR setup. So what I was planning to do is connect the LNB out socket from the Digibox to the PC sat card.

My choice is between the Technisat SKYSTAR 2 Rev 2.6D (42£)
but I am put off by the difficulties that people have in setting it up while some say it works for them.

The other option is the TwinhanDTV Mini Sat which is slightly cheaper at 38£
or the CI version (
VP1030A) which has had some good reviews.
I hav'nt seen any comments on this card in the forum so if there are any owners of this card I would be most interested in their feedback.
