You only need one tuner card to pause live tv, or record while watching 
a previous recording, like TiVo.  TiVo only handles one stream.

FYI, you spent $330 for your TV-in solution.  I spent $30 (ATI TV 
Wonder).  So there is a way to do this without worrying about your $330 
being a waste in 3 years.
