I think you misread what Gary wrote. The cable card
version of the<br>
tuner will have four tuners.<br>
<br>
This is a pretty nice little box. If the quality is good,
having<br>
H.264 transcoding done in hardware will be a really nice
benefit to<br>
both save space and to allow easier playback on mobile
devices.<br>
<br>
I wonder what the release date for the CC box will be?</blockquote>
