Interesting.  Hauppauge must have just switched chips.  I received two
PVR-250 MCE cards directly from them about three weeks ago and they both
show up as:

Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416)
        MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 4801
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 5
        Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
        Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
 
I've got a different problem with my cards though.  My system always
locks up while trying to download microcode to the cards.
