Technotrend Premium cards very cheap (update 2)
I had found a shop that sells Technotrend Premium cards very, very cheap (49 € + IVA 16% and shipping) but where is the trick ? This cards are an old release from Technotrend called Data Only cards, but this cards are exactly the same as a classical SS1 with hardware MPEG2 decoder but without the connectors to extract the video signal.
But don't worry it is very easy to extract the signal from the card, it has some holes where the original connectors should be soldered, you only need to solder them and you get a full featured SS1 card by half of its usual price.
Here you can see a not very good photo showing the connectors, I will hope to get a better one when my card arrives.
I think the stock should be quite limited so hurry up.

Thanks to tatxen here there are some images about how to get RGB and composite signals from this cards:
I had received my card a few weeks ago, and finally here is a photo of the card with video and sound cables connected. The photo has been taken with a mobile so the quality is not very good :( It works fine.

Thank you for your images. This figures shows everybody how to connect the SS1 (this cheap one) to standard outputs using RGB cables and/or composite output as you like, of course RGB output gives you better quality.
This images are now added to the main post.
