The ATI device will only be available in pre-build computers

Before anyone gets too excited about the ATI TV Wonder OCUR tuner, see this article: »www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=3609

ATI's device will only be available in pre-build, pre-configured computers.

With ATI killing off the AIW line and now this, I hope other manufactures can step up to the plate affordable user installable PC cards that add cablecard support. Once they come out with the bi-directional cablecards that is.

I would also expect any cablecard tuners that do come out to be heavily loaded/locked down with DRM.
