Myself and a few others are working on updated hardware pages over at 
www.mythtv.info, or more specifically http://mythtv.info/moin.cgi/HardWare 
Now that you mention it, I've got a couple more things to add.

AFAICR, the WinTV PVR's won't work as they don't have nay V4L drivers 
(although I could be wrong). You definitely want a PVR-2/350, and they're 
mentioned in the official docs here 
http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-3.html and here 
http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#pvr250
