I think b&h photo is cheaper. <http://www.bhphotovideo.com> never done business with them before so this doesn't constitute a 'recommendation'. more the suggestion to shop for prices. I mentioned ecost because another fellow (another ng) praised their prices. they are pretty good but still this tuner card can be found for less. Felmon

They only have the 850 and 950 models. Too bad, because the 1950 looks like the internal 1800 card wrapped up in a box. Cheers, Rob Komar
