I've had a Air2PC on backorder from cyberestore for a while now, and just checked on the status to see that it's delayed until May or June. Not only that, but it will use a new chipset that probably won't be supported initially.
Other than cyberestore and the mythtv store listed on froogle, is there anywhere to actually get these cards? A lot of people on this list seem to have them, yet nowhere on the internet seems to have them in stock. I guess I just missed the boat on this one. There's a guy selling some Air2PC cards on ebay for cheap, but he says it's an older version that doesn't work with Linux. I've finally convinced myself to blow a wad of cash on a new mythtv box with enough oomph for HDTV, yet the lack of a capture card hurts. All I care about is QAM decoding. I don't do anything OTA, nor will I since I live in an apartment and can't put up a gargantuan antenna. Plus, my cable company is nice enough to provide me with unencrypted local channels in HD, so why make things more complicated? I have read that the Air2PC card is "better" in the QAM department. If I get impatient and go for a HD-3000, would I be missing anything? Also, would either of these cards be able to capture non-HD digital cable, assuming it's unencrypted QAM? -- Seth Heckard / [EMAIL PROTECTED]
