You didn't ask the best question of all. How does your tuner-card friend plan on authorizing his device with FiOS? I've wanted to use this option so I could have an accessible set-top-box replacement alternative, but no one at FiOS to whom I have spoken even knows if they can issue authorization cards for these things, so I haven't plunked down my money for one yet. SO I went another route, which turned out to be just as good, and totally free. Since I have an iPhone, and my wife an iPad, I use the FiOS iPhone and iPad apps, which are totally accessible and control our boxes just fine. Considering what one could spend on a TV card or USB device, getting an iPad is almost worth it just for this purpose! Get an old one, no need to have the latest and greatest one. You could probably find one for less than the cost of the TV card, and at the end of the day, not only will you control your television viewing, but you'll have an iPad as well!
