I've actually been pondering this one myself.  I'd love to use one of 
these to put together something that hooks up to my TV, and ideally 
can record TV and play it back.  I know I can get video into one via 
Firewire using my Canopus ADVC-100, but that won't cut it for such an 
application.  Maybe this will create a market for a firewire 
tuner/capture device.

As I've said, I think this is a terrific system, now that they've 
finally released basically what I've been saying they needed :^)  Now 
they need to build a "Home Entertainment" Mac for about the same 
price :^)
