I just got my HD3000 in last night.  I'm working on it now and should be 
able to post a patch in a few days (schedule is a little tight right 
now).  I may work on making the driver a patch to 2.6.9 with the latest 
v4l2 first, until 2.6.10 final comes out.  Still reading code right now.

There have been a lot of changes to the bttv and cx88 drivers since 
pcHDTV forked the code for their driver.  It will take a little effort 
to merge and find the differences.  This is one of the reasons I prefer 
patches instead of standalone.  It is much easier to take advantage of 
improvements to the master codebase.
