Those are some seriously fucking expensive boxes. I thought the velocity micro ones where high (they also don't say if it's one or two card slot model tuner :( ), but these are just over the top and then some cost wise. What pisses me off is this retailers get to total close out smaller box builders and tinkers because of the free monopoly MS and cable labs has given them by requiring final box certification and special unlock codes for the reader.
For god sake somebody hurry up and hack that shit so we can buy a reader and get cable card goodness into our home without needing to sell are car.
