Default Best DVB-C for virgin media with media portal

Hi I am runing a

Media Center with mce 2005

amd 3700+ with 2 gig ram and 250 gig hard drive and freeview 3010ix also with mce remote.. I would like hd tv too I was going for freesat but dont a sat on my house that is any good.

I like football so I need cable.. so been looking on here people are saying I need Technotrend C-1501 or C-1500 with softcam like vplug and media portal.

but can not find a Technotrend C-1501 anywhere so ask on DVBSHOP

they say dont have any but they do have a Mystique Cabix-C2 instead, which is Original KNC1 TV-Station (also sells als Terratec Cinergy) it's all based on BDA drivers, it offers all the same function like the TT-C1501
Should I hold on for C-1501 or get this card

MCE doesn't support softcams, so you won't get it to work, I'm never sure if there are native MCE drivers for that card, either.

Have a search for dvbsbridge.

Or look for a FloppyDTV-C/CI, problem is they're flippin expensive with the exchange rate the way it is.
