I got one from CompUSA in November, just before they admitted they were
going out of business. You might find one on eBay or similar, the branding
is theirs. Works on FC4 and FC7, probably work anywhere...

As for current stuff, no idea, and the specs change so often by the time I
find one which works, the current available model isn't the same. Also not
that some have no tuner, they take composite and S-video only.

If you want something serious, see pchomerun.com, really awesome solution,
at <$200.
