Hi I'm looking into making a mythbox with two tv turners and are about to buy the PVR-500 im getting it for around 150 with a remote and a $30 mail in rebate,so after rebate its 120, is this a good price, would it just be cheaper/better to get two cards instead of this one? which ones? thanks, Jonathan |

Use one of the web shopping sites, like Pricegrabber, to compare prices. For the kit with the remote that sounds like a good price. Getting 2 PVR-150's, (one with a remote, one without) is about the same price withing a couple $ either way. However there are some PVR-500's out there at the moment with a (currently) unsupported tuner chip. For PVR-150's at worst you'll need to manually set the tuner type. This is _very_ subject to change as our friends at Hauppauge introduce new tuner chips at a dizzying pace. |
