Well there is at least one ;-), you can look here: 
http://www.lyngsat.com/intel903.html, *transponder which says 11495 H. 
And I can confirm it is not a 30000 Msps DVB-S2 as I cant tune to it and 
alot of other people have confirmed that the high rate is actually 45Msps.
And I think that this sort of high symbol rate is probably demanding for 
the hardware but also for the driver, so I'd like a confirmation by 
someone who has tested it instead of blindly believing the specs.
And as all HD channels are crammed into this transponder, I am desperate 
to find a capable card. Moreover it is encrypted, but I can do without 
CI and using a smartcard reader.
Anyways if someone can point me to some info in this direction, that 
would be great!
Bye
Manu
