For buying a DB in the USA try asking on al7bar.tk - I think it is more US based. Yes it can view some encrypted channels with a suitable image, emu and keys (no cams needed).

Try reading posts on emulators on what can be viewed, there are several links in other posts e.g dream box world. If you get the correct keys you should get star sports, not sure about cartoons.

The DB are 110-220V so you should be OK, the eb*y seller appears to ship worldwide (from Germany).

Out of the box, no. But you can modify it using a PC to flash (load) a new image onto the Dreambox and then add CAMS using onscreen menus.

It is not easy but can be done with effort. If you are good with computers you should be able to do it, otherwise try an easier receiver first.

Good Luck.

Well, you will need to have basic computer skills...if you want to own a dreambox and get any proper use out of it.
Try reading the idiot guide and see if you understand how to do all the basic stuff. If it does not sound too difficult then go for it. Of course people her e will help, but as I said there has to be basic understanding.
You know, the worst that could happen is that you will have to sell it on if it does not work out. Try to get a cheap one or second hand, that way no problem....
