I don't need the remote and don't feel like being bothered with Paypal, 
but this is a good deal!  It's used, but for $100+7 is a good deal since 
the best new I've found is: $150:

I'm getting the san-remote version for $125:

PVR-500 tuner
-------------
Dual *analog* tuner on a single PCI card
Pro:
    2 tuners, single PCI card
    Composite (RCA) and s-vid in
Con:
    Analog
    There is only 1 CATV in and the splitter is internal; the other 
coax is FM ant.  That's good for my cable/splitter situation but bad for 
flexibility. :-/


Later,
JP

Microsoft has single-handedly nullified Moore's Law.
Innate design flaws of Windows make a personal firewall, anti-virus
and anti-malware software mandatory. The resulting software arms race
has effectively flattened Moore's Law on hardware running Windows.
