After six years of data taking the B-Factories are now providing measurements with an accuracy which is beyond expectations. All the angles and sides of the unitarity triangle are measured to unprecedented accuracy and with several different techniques. This redundancy of measurements, in agreement with the Standard Model, allows to probe models for new physics. This paper summarizes the current results with particular emphasis on novel techniques.
