pcHDTVâ„¢ to start shipping the HD-3000

[electron]

pcHDTVâ„¢ has announced they will start shipping their HD-3000 Linux compatible HDTV tuner tomorrow. This is the only card that will ignore the broadcast flag (which TV stations want to use to control what you can record), and is compatible with Linux. Starting in July 2005 (due to a FCC ruling), it will be illegal for any manufacture to import HDTV tuners which ignores the broadcast flag, so this is your last chance as they will be hard to get!

looks like their site may have caved under the pressure?

It was slow this morning, I guess they got too many visits, the announcement was posted on several popular sites.

Do I understand correctly that MS MCE and XP are NOT supported?

Bummer!

correct, they have some beta drivers, but that's about it.
