Dr.Dish:
I think its not. There are some rules. If you obey them, everything will be
fine:
1. Dont use some of this newly receivers with computer inside
2. If you allready got one, never try to go program such a device.
3. Did you allready the programming and it goes wrong (and it will) dont ask
the company who build this device for technical help. They will tell you
that they did not build such a receiver.
I got all this trouble, so now I got a MPEG-receiver without a Conditional
Access Module and Smart-Card. Its a very quiet experience and I love it. A
second receiver I bought in Tierra Abajo. They have one channel receivers
(only for the goverment-channel). I converted this receiver to see the
german channel NTV. It is very relaxing. You only get the news, you allready
know about from your local newspaper.It is a 24 hour channel and no exciting
(think about your heart) news ever will make you awake
