No, actually not. IIRC, with the rev 2.1 the DVB-C/S/T are identical except
for the tuner.

BUT, DVB is not that well known in cable environments. E.g. in Germany you
will have next to no benefits switching to DVB as long as you stay with FTA
channels. And on top of that the private channels are not distributed via
DVB-cable :-(
