AFAIK there is a CI slot and descrambler present, but there is no CI available (at least yet) from Technisat. There is a post by SF100 on 2004-12-09 13:15 at http://www.dvdplaza.fi/forums/showthread.php?t=32798 which as roughly translated is: "I asked about this from Germany. This week Technisat had met representives of DVBViewer and hardware suppliers. It is planned to offer CI option for all Flexcop based cards. I don't know if it will be possible to connect CI with the current cards or do the cards need modifications. The schedule is still open." -- Anssi Hannula
