Ill give u 2 reasons for what you and ur dealer is saying are wrong:
1) The pcmcia slot ur talking about is not for a PC card...its so that u can add CAM Modules which can accept cards to decrypt more types of encryptions. BIG TV uses media guard if im correct...u can go to the market and buy a module which can allow u put cards that can unlock irdeto 2, etc. placing an irdeto 2 card into the 1st card slot will not work but placing it into the extra cam module will mean u can decrypt irdeto 2 channels with ur irdeto 2 suscription card...
2)usb connector is for updating software via PC. these STB are made outside india and are used in market unbranded from BIG TV with many sattelites. STB updates (ie official updates from the manufacturer) are only available on some satellites. so if someone wants to update their STB S/W they can just connect it to their PC, download the new software onto it...this way everyone will not be required to connect to those specific satellites providing the update...

I agree.. In US, all my DIsh recivers had USB and Ethernet connections, but it had nothing to do with providing internet. It is just their way of future proofing the equipment in case of the need for a firmware update that cannot be provided over the air...

still the policy did not allow uplink from our dth only downlinking allowed
I am fed up of BSNL broadband. Only hope for a good broadband for small-towners like me is through DTH. Providing broadband internet through DTH, does this kind of service exist anywhere in the world ?? Can anyone out there enlighten us??

well i have seen broadband via sattelite like in RVs or vechicles which also serve the purpose of home aka mobile homes.but i am not sure whether DTH providers can give broadband via dth bcause ur STB and dish will also have to transmitt back to the sattelite and these stb and dish would be expensive.what i think these dth providers means is that they will give broadband via a dsl or ADSL etc and stb can accept that these connections and can show internet on ur tv.there other types where downstream of internet is via sattelite and upstream via ur telephone line which could be dial up or adsl etc.
so IMO IPTV is the future and devices like xbox 360 which is iptv with reliance IPTV.
