laptop tv tuner

Has anyone purchased one of these HDTV/Analog cards for their laptop computer?

If you have one I would love to hear about your experience with the gizmo. I have had to talk myself out of purchasing one the last two trips to the electronic store.
TIA
Phil

Phil,
Check the add again, it does not do HD. It will do analog and digital, both over the air and cable. Does not say anything about satalite, but if it will do cable, will probably do satalite. Looks like MS Vista only, not usable on XP or Mac. It does give you the ability to record programs and play them back later.
I'm also be interested in any comments from someone that has it.

Take a look at this one: http://www.gofastmotorsports.com/matchbox.htm If I understand what I read, this might do the trick. I do know this guy is very dependable. He's been around since the C Band days. No connection for me to the site, just happened to be on there yesterday looking around. He also carries a neat satellite meter. Rather pricey though; and I thought the Bird Dog meter was high.

I found the same one on costco.com for 60 bucks less than compusa. For just $125 with shipping its a risk I am willing to take. I ordered it and it should be here next week. I am going to give it a try. The guy at compusa said this is the HD/Analog tuner. We shal soon find out if this is true. Look for the HD to drop from HDTV around February of 2009 when everything is converted to High Definition. It will all turn into Digital TV hence the names KXYZ-tv/dt for tv stations. I just want to get all the toys for this computer now so I don't have to buy any computer stuff for at least 4 years.
