    Question Leadtek WinFast DTV1000 TV Card Question

    I'm looking into this card, which I have read some reviews of:
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=378685

    Seems good, so two questions:

    1. Is this an OEM style version, without the remote ect which i have read about in reviews of the card?

    2. When will it be back in stock?

    my main gripe with scan at the moment is sometimes the breif product discriptions or strange choice of picutre leave you in two minds as to if the product is one you think. A link to the discrition page of the manufacturer would be much appriciated in some cases.

    I got one of these from them this week (and I've had several others from other suppliers). It's always fully boxed (glossy etc), with software, CD, remote etc - the full works.

    I really rate them as an MCE card (as long as you don't need low profile), but using it's own quirky software it's a bit strange.

    I'm only looking for digital, seen as I more or less only watch News 24, theres not much point in an analogue one .

    I read some good reviews about the Leadtek, and the software for most of the TV tuners doesnt seem to be so hot But I dont have Windows MCE so need to use it, unless that one that comes with Nero7 works?

    I will have a look at the Hauppage - does it support HD?
