They are counting the NTSC tuner. Ok, so what? Who has a television that doesn't have an NTSC tuner already? And in the age of HDTV who the heck wants an NTSC tuner? In fact, my year old el'cheapo flat-panel has both an NTSC and ATSC tuner. Hey, I got two-tuners too.<br><br>Exactly who are they catering this product to? ATSC tuner cards have been out for several years and if I remember correctly every single one of them included the ability for decoding NTSC signals.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GhostDoggy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 5:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI delivers TV Wonder 650 Combo USB HDTV tuner for Mac]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's for use with a computer, not a television. None of my monitors have tuners. What's going to kill this for Apple Fanboys, is it's just plain ugly. I guess they could always hide it :)<br><br>As for the NTSC tuner, it's good until 2009. Then it's a boat anchor.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joe Maki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 8:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI delivers TV Wonder 650 Combo USB HDTV tuner for Mac]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</guid><description><![CDATA[yeah, <br>I'm passing on it and waiting for one with two hd tuners.  It's a waste for me to get it with a soon to be obsolete feature, and the inability to pause or record an HD channel OTA while watching another HD OTA channel.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kumar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 10:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ATI delivers TV Wonder 650 Combo USB HDTV tuner for Mac]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2007/11/14/ati-delivers-tv-wonder-650-combo-usb-hdtv-tuner-for-mac/</guid><description><![CDATA[Even if it has NTSC, it wouldn't matter that that part of the circuitry is a "boat anchor".  I doubt it takes that much circuitry and chip area to do NTSC, those designs are long paid for.<br><br>If you subscribe to analog cable, then it would still be useful for that.<br><br>If you're looking for alternatives, HDHomeRun is Mac and Windows compatible, though I think maybe you have to buy it from Elgato to get the Mac software bundled with it.  HDHomeRun is also a network tuner, so you can hide it away from your computer and even place it where you get the best reception.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JeffDM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 14th 2007 3:02PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
