Default UK DVB-T card?


Does anyone know which (if any) UK DVB-T cards MS have tested or recommend
for use with Vista?

Asking as it looks like my BlackGoldTV DVB-T card is unsupported in Vista
and I want to purchase a new complaint card ASAP.

Cheers.

I've been badgering Hauppauge for drivers for the Nova-T for 6 months - and
they still say that
1) They have no plans for drivers until Vista comes out
2) Vista is 64-bit only (!!)

I've had very bad experiences in the past with Hauppauge so would prefer to
avoid them, fave so far is looking like the Pinnacle 310i.

Anyone had any good / bad experiences?

The Pinnacle 310i is however listed as DVB-T compatible and I've heard good
things about it. The Hauppauge HVR-1300
sounds like it is a viable option though. So which is the best of the two
cards guys?
