Do you live in Austria, jno? If you do, and you've got a mate in the Czech Republic, Slovakia or Hungary, you could get them to take out a UPC Direct subscription and send you the card (it's not tied to the box, thank God). You get two versions of Hallmark, National Geographic, Discovery, Fox Kids and BBC Prime all in English. Unfortunately the buggers dropped TCM and Cartoon Network last week last week.It costs about 140 quid a year.
