Here's one now from ATI. It does require Vista however.

»ati.amd.com/products/tvwonderdig···dex.html
It requires Vista and a fully pre-built Vista PC that has been certified per Cable Labs' requirement. (Some system builders can self certify, but you and I can't!)

I was pricing one of them and the cheapest I could find a dual tuner box with a decently sized hard disk for was around $1700.
And dont even think of trying to record PPV or the premium movie channels. vista will disable that interface on protected content in effect turning that investment into a brick.
