[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 1190, member: 174998"] From the hardware perspective there are only 2 types of Irdeto CI CAM - the original series, which is re-programmable - the newer "Euro" series which is not re-programmable. The only external indicator is that the Euro CAM has a statement printed on it that reverse-engineering is illegal (or words to that effect). The originbal series does not. But note: you can also place your CAM in the receiver and check what it reports itself as through the CAM menu. If it reports itself as v0.04.60se/46se/v0.04.47se/47se/allcam/freecam then you know it must be the reprogrammable type since none of those software versions are the original Irdeto as supplied by Mindport. New developments? Well the Viaccess hack went pulic in February so you might like to get yourself a Viaccess CI CAM too... And if you still want to but a Mediaguard (Astoncrypt/Seca) CAM then be aware that the rumour has it the new v1.06 CAMs incoroprate a restrictive country-code along the lines of the C+ controlled Mediahighway boxes. Whether it's true or not I don't know (I doubt it) but if you get a v1.05/4/3 then you know you're ok... Re internet vendors, there are many, many satellite dealerships & manufacturers that have extensive internet sites. I'm loathe to recommend one or the other (and in any case, I don't live in the UK so my "favourite" dealers are no good to you....) Just go to Alta Vista and type in what you want to search for. Or buy a copy of What Satellite and check out the thousands of ads there (many of which include URLs to their web sites) 2old [/QUOTE]
