722K - Do they need a G3 card in the smart card slot?

[Stargazer]

Do the 722K receivers require a G3 card or are they built in? My 722 has a card in it's slot but I was not sure if the 722K did not require the card?

NO.

they still have a slot though.. I always presumed that initially you get one with onboard SIM info ... and then out come the encryption police and send everyone new smart cards.. had that with my 625's long time ago... but have only had my 722k's since December.

That's pretty much how it works. The latest smart cards were released in mid-2008. The 722k was released in early 2009. Thus, the internal smart card is up-to-date and no new card is required at this time.

EDIT: Wow, I didn't see the post above mine. Great minds think alike .
