I belive the CI interface for the budget cards is still experimental/unstable, 
for something that has been around for ages and is rock solid you would get 
the Hauppauge Nexus-S or Technotrend TT Premium (iirc).

The Nexus has been rock solid here for about 1 1/2 years, with a conax cam + 
canal digital scandinavia. And you also get 2 CI slots, the budget cards only 
has one. They are a bit more expensive, since there's a mpeg decoder on there 
in addition, but in my oppinion it's worth it.
