AVerMedia ships $70 AVerTVHD Volar MAX USB tuner
AVerMedia's USB-enabled AVerTVHD Volar MAX, which was introduced just about two months ago to the day, has just started shipping out to retail locations and mailboxes everywhere. The tuner can easily pick up OTA HD channels as well as ClearQAM signals, and it even plays nice with both Mac and PC platforms. Furthermore, it makes compressing recordings for playback on an iPod or other PMP remarkably simple, but you'll have to shell out $69.99 in order to bring it all home.

Yeah, but can it work in Vista Media Center TV Pack or Windows 7? A lot of these manufacturers touting QAM capability make you use their bundled crap software, they don't make drivers for the QAM to work in VMC.
