HVR1400 is expresscard. HVR1900 is usb2. HVR1950 is the NTSC/ATSC/QAM version of the HVR1900. (HVR1900 is PAL/DVB-T, but can also do NTSC, and other analog standards) HVR1900 is the one I am recommending for you. Maybe the website you're looking at needs updating -- the HVR1900 has been available already for quite some time.
