I was going through may old mail and came across this as I was looking for support for DVB/T2 TVs with CI (common interface) by GOTV instead of getting the setup box?
Sorry *but* did you get? Am looking for one though [help with leads], need cartoons and kids programs and don't want another STB. Of the 2 [star-times and Gotv] am wondering which has more [kids programs] and who in the house has ever used the CI for a TV. Discalimer: I could call to the media hses but their defination of kids may not be 'the definations of an african child' The websites content may be out of date. The receptionists/sales may not know what is a C.I [like i did once to startimes about HD decoders :)]
