Discussing hardware based CAM/CI solutions on this list is perfectly
fine--it's basically equivalent to the (newly-available-in-the-US)
CableCARD-based systems available for use with MythTV that are getting a
lot of recent discussion. It's software-based CAM that's a forbidden topic.
That said, it seems few have much experience with hardware-based CAM/CI,
so you may not get a lot of responses.
