Sky Italia official subscribers.

Hi, this isn't strictly Seca related (anymore) but I was just wondering out of interest about current official Sky Italia subscribers. When the encryption changed to NDS would they have been issued with a new receiver (similar to a Sky Digibox) or an 'NDS Cam'? Would they have been issued with a new smartcard or would the old one work (i.e. the one used prior to the encryption change)?

Any ideas? I'm not planning on hacking NDS if anyone's worried bout answering cos of that, it's just someone I know had a Sky Italia subscription prior to the encryption change and I was curious as to what was happening.

My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

I believe that it is a hybrid encryption, so can use the existing equipment, but not 100% sure.
