MessageMy local computer shop in Ottawa can order them (www.laurier.com).

It's not on their web site but it usually takes a couple of days (so they
say).

Philip, sorry this isn't an answer to your question, but another question.
Where in Canada did you find a source for the 350?

Hi all,

I'm still new at this so bear with me for a minute...  :-)

I am planning on building my first MythTV box pretty soon based on the
Pundit and Jarod's how-to (great work by the way!).  I know pretty much
everything I want to get but I'm not really sure whether I should get the
PVR-250 or the PVR-350...  From searching in this forum and on the web I
realize that support for the PVR-350 is still preliminary (for the TV
out/decoding anyway).

My question to you guys is :

Can I use the PVR-350 in the same way the PVR-250 is used, i.e. by using the
built-on video out of the Pundit?  Will this be as stable as a setup with
the PVR-250 or it requires a completely different set of drivers?  When the
PVR-350 support matures I would then reconfigure my box to use the TV out on
the PVR-350.  Or maybe I'm out to lunch and this is already pretty stable?

Reason I ask is that there is only a $70 (CDN) or so dollar difference
between the two cards so if the 350 is the way to go I might as well get it
know.

Thanks much!

-Phil
