Tivo has recently released the Tivo-HD for
$300. It's a dual tuner unit but you have to pay the monthly
*subscription* fee if you want it to work. It doesn't have a DVD in it.

I saw that and noticed that you have to have two "cable cards" for
dual tuner capability. What does that mean - that you have to connect
to the cable?

No, it means that *if* you have *digital* cable you will need a cablecard
for each tuner you hook up to cable. You don't need anything for OTA ATSC,
or analog cable.
