yes, but on the bright side the new chipset will have a 5th generation tuner :). I actually have three units on back order myself and share your pain <sigh>... > Other than cyberestore and the mythtv store listed on froogle, is there > anywhere to actually get these cards?

If > I get impatient and go for a HD-3000, would I be missing anything? Actually, it appears the original Air2PC had some unresolvable hardware issues with QAM. They are supposed to be fixed in the new version. I believe the HD-3000 is QAM capable, but don't know how it compares to the as yet unavailable new version of them Air2PC. I originally decided on the Air2PC because it was supposed to have a better tuner with greater success in the face of marginal signals. On the other hand, it seems a lot of people are happy with their HD-3000's, so if you can't wait... -- Paul B.
