HDHomeRun all the way.  Its cross platform out o the box (via VLC).
No need to have extra PCI slots and easily lets you build a quiet
HTPC.

As a side note, someone (can't remember his name, but he presented
MythTV+Ubuntu at the ubuntu conference) mentioned about talking with
Silicondust for a volume discount.  I want at least 3. :)

thanks,
Amul
