My CableCARD was installed by my uncle which looked like a pain to do but he used a tuner and I know he had to configure some network and the cable unit it self but it was worth it. To have him do it of course. ;)

No CableCARD here, though my Sony supports it!
According to Comcast in my area the CableCard won't work because the set-top box needs to access interactive offerings like the on-demand features and programming guides. Honestly the tech didn't seem to know much about, I'm sure Comcast will do wHATever they can to control your options. Great product though. lATE
