I picked up an OEM PVR250 for $79 from this place:  
http://www.adc-ast.com/ and thought I'd share the link. Mine arrived 
today and is working perfectly with v0.15.1 / debian unstable, latest 
ivtv.

Here's the relevant lspci -v entry:

0000:00:0c.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc 
iTVC15 MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
         Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 4801
         Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 12
         Memory at e0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
         Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

The picture their site shows isn't what I actually received, it looks 
like the WinTV-PVR-250MCE on the Hauppage website. However the 
instructions in the myth documentation worked perfectly. Also you get 
no remote or cables, just the card and a cd... my CD was unreadable, 
but whatever.

Also I'm not affiliated, not responsible, blah blah blah :) Might want 
to use their toll free number to make sure they have them in stock. 
When I first ordered I later was told they were out of stock so it took 
around 10 days.
