yes.
yellow house cards will work ok on a plaza, with the relevant software.
although i have not had a sky card in one over 2 months, to see if it kept the stay awake signal, the software did reawake a FTV card...

i have no idea if they work on the new sky cards tho....

Yes, I have also read reports that a Sky card will work in the Manhatten Plaza XT range, but have no further details.
