I received an email about this new product release last week from Hauppauge, but didn't manage to find the time to write it up. The firm known for their varietty of TV tuners and PVR cards has released yet another PCI-based card known as the WINTV Nova-T 500, a twin-tuner Freeview TV card, which runs on Windows XP Pro, Home and Media Center Editions.
It ships with a remote control, and according to the blurb in the press release, you'll be able to use it with Vista, but the jury will be out on that until it's actually been spotted in the wild.
It has all the features you would expect from a twin-tuner PVR unit, but here's the doozy; it has a built-in conversion tool for transferring clips to you iPod or PSP.
I'm thinking of building myself a new PC in 2007, so I might take a closer look at this one when I've saved up my pennies.
1. wow, I'm glad I ran across this website. I'm currently planning out a 3-6 Terabyte PVR system and it sounds like this may be the card I'll want.
