Thanks for your feedback.

1. re: remote control
It may not be essential to have one if I can operate the tuner with the one supplied with the system / MCE (a fancy one that senses movement). I will check this tonight.
The HP model comes with a remote.

2. re: power requirement
I think I misread something in the system documentation. I thought the port was passive i.e. it could only read memory cards but was not able to supply power to TV card. I have just read the documentation again (user manual, hardware manual and service manual) and could not find any info like that anymore. I will double check that anyway.

Regards
