I personally like the Sammy 2100c box which I believe works in all areas and is quite straight forward to modify with a JTAG, funcard & card writer.

You can either buy a pace or samsung box set it up and programme it yourself, you will need to buy some equipment.
Or you can buy a d box 2, eurovox max. dreambox, starview, etc, watch out for clones (cheap copies).
Do some research before you decide, there is plenty of info on this site.
Have a good read.

a lot of people are going for the eurovox latley but each to his own have a read of some of the post they'll help you decide or confuse you even more.
