The answer would be NO if running rom 102 with public keyset. Lots of reports on the various testing sites stating that you get a message like Charlie's Error 153 -- something to the tune of:

"Your card is about to expire. Tune to channel 263 for more info."

I don't know about emulation, though. In any event, I wouldn't take it. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

gotta agree with the King on this one. If its still running just fine, keep your old FW

Well, for the first time I just accepted the new update w/o checking with anyone b/c I assumed the IRD would eventually stop working anyway without it. So now I'm getting the "Attention : SmartCard about to expire message..." . Is there a way of eliminating this ? Otherwise, everything is OK. Thanks.

Yes. Until a fix is released, take the pr0n tiers off or your card. The nag will go away after doing this. Alternatively, re-jtag back to the older firmware and keep your pr0n. :p
