Does anyone have experience with the VB50HRTV tv tuner? http://www.viewsonic.com/products/video_vb50hrtv.htm

It basically turns any VGA capable monitor into a TV, meaning full screen near real TV quality display and works with tv peripherals (VCR, game consoles, etc). I'm considering purchasing one in a month or two. Since there's no software requirement, there's also no video capture capabilities. However, similarly priced (MacOS X) tv tuners are USB only and at such a low quality capture, it doesn't seem useful at all.

Other comments on TV tuners are welcomed. Thank you in advance.
