 From a user point of view, there is not much difference between the 
cards. Both work in Myth.

The driver support is much newer for the 150. This means there are still 
some problems being worked out with it. It's getting *much* better - But 
if you really don't bleed over $25, get the 250.

For anyone else already trying this:
Grab 0.3.2v

Apply http://www.ivtv.tv/patches/ivtv-0.3.2v-freez_fixes.diff

Enjoy:

SVideo COLOR!
VBI (CC and Teletext)
Less prone to encoder crashes

Cheers,

Allan.
