So, my question is, assuming that they actually release this card sometime in 2009, will it work in my Dell XPS 420?

They never made an announcement, that was a post done by me.

I wonder if it'll be another year before they make the same announcement again:

I just hope there's some way to shoehorn these into my DIY box by hacking the BIOS or something.

It's really frustrating to be forced to use some crappy OEM box, instead of my custom built rig!

Comcast and TWC plan on enabling tru2way by July of this year. tru2way really doesn't matter much to me, what matters is two-way communication support for SDV.

Not sure how you figure only TWC is affected by SDV (TWC has 20+ million cable subscribers BTW). Comcast will be deploying SDV as well.

Everyone seems to get so heated about SDV and tru2way all the time when tru2way isn't out and at the rate most service providers adopt new technology it will be a couple years. And unless you have Time Warner SDV won't effect you.

I can't wait for this card, and I'll also save another $1.50 a month on my Comcast bill as I won't need a second cable card anymore and then I won't be giving Comcast any money for their hardware, which is the ultimate goal in the end, and more HD channels!

Except that CableLabs didn't have complete specs for them to do so....

"We plan on having a Multi-OCUR (MOCUR) device certified by CableLabs early in 2008 with production shortly thereafter."

Why exactly do you believe they have '0 credibility.'?

When do you think this will be on the market?

I don't believe you are locked to a specific manufacturers Tuner solution...just needs to be a CableLabs certified PC with BIOS & license keys. However, I think your system will recognize this as a major change and may render protected TV recordings unplayable. I'm not sure about this but it is a distinct possiblity.

Does anyone know if it will be possible to purchase one of these tuners for use on a Dell XPS 420 Vista Home Premium system that I purchased with the ATI OCUR? or does one need to buy a whole new system even if the current system is "legal"
