Other World Computing has refurbished 2009 Hybrids for $100 which
support TV & FM tuners as well as the AV inputs you need. EyeTV
software can do a whole bunch of things:

The 2008 Hybrid I bought from OWC has worked well for me on my MBP.

That's a 2009? I thought it was the newest version! Oh well, ordered
it from them yesterday and it should work fine for $40 less than the
price Amazon wanted.
