The WinTV-HVR-3000 (we love it when gear has “3000″ in the model name. Remember how 10 years ago everything was “2000?” Yah.) has not only a cable/antenna jacks, but also Freeview HD and digital satellite inputs. In addition, it has specialized software to automate recording of your favorite broadcasts and a TV-style remote control to operate the whole shebang.

They generally come with software allowing you to record TV on your PC. Since last year, these two brands at least have provided software that allows them to work with Windows XP MCE. Also many of the cards come with CI (common interface) allowing the use of a CAM (common access module, I think - its basically a sort of PCMCIA card with a slot for a smart card - different satellite broadcasters use different encryption technologies that require different CAMs) to insert your smart card. If not, you can buy these on separate PCI cards or even in units that fit in a floppy bay. In short, wheres the news here?
