Dual tuner cards?

It is time for me to finally get going on my HTPC project. What I would like to be able to do is be able to watch a program while another is being recorded. I would also like to be able to watch one show on one TV while watching a different show on another.
HD is not necessary as of now....but who knows about the future...


Has anyone done this? I have noticed that there are not a whole lot of choices when it comes to dual tuner cards.....maybe I am just lookng in the wrong places? The hauppauge 2250 is about the only one I have found....

Another thought I just has would be to install 2 skystar2 cards....has anyone done this?

any help/advise is appreciated!!

[edit]...removed live link...sorry[/edit]

It's OK to post the link, just use a / in front of it or "xx" instead of "tt" so it isn't live.
