I read a review on a forum the other day - looks like a cool device. Here's a page with the specs and a link for ordering it:

For $169 for a dual ATSC/QAM tuner, that can stream HD to your computer, it looks pretty interesting.

And here's  a review I saw, on EngadgetHD:

Interesting. It appears to be by the same guy that did the TiVoNet/TurboNet/CacheCard/etc. for the TiVo. He goes by the nick Jafa on the TiVo Community Forums. His stuff is brilliant... I wouldn't have any hesitation buying this if he's behind it.

Well... guess what. This is what they refer to over on the TiVo Community Forum as the "UMF" or Unseen Mystical Force. It's the force that propels the credit card straight out of your wallet and into your hand, and forces your fingers down on the keys as they type the number into the order form, the minute you see the item.

This is a long way of saying I ended up buying it just now. I'll let you know how it turns out. :)

Add cablecard support and I'd be buying it right now. ;)
