Exactly - I don't get the digital switch over until 2011, but I want to be ready!! Looks good though.
So I've mailed Blakgold to ask for tentative release dates - I will report back when I get some more info.
From BlackGold:
'We hope to release this towards the end of the year.
The determining factor being the volume availability of some of the key components. The chips used are very new, leading edge, so are in very high demand.'
I guess all the silicon has been snapped up by the PVR and set top box manufacturers. Still, the end of the year is almost looming - hooray, Christmas soon then!!

Very interesting. In Germany there's a DVB-T2 Test Area close to Hamburg. See: Modellversuch DVB-T2
I found a DVB-T2 Stick from PCTV Systems here. They say: "Auch die zukünftigen terrestrischen HDTV-Programme sind für den PCTV nanoStick kein Problem." Which means this stick is ready for future HDTV in DVB-T2".
So I wrote them in order to tell me if I can receive anything yet in that area with this stick.

Hmm... I wonder how much that will cost.
The Hauppauge USB device is reported as being £99.
Unfortunatley, with BlackGold, that probably means December 2011. The BGT3595 arrived a year late, and that wasn't dependent on the availability of T2 tuner silicon...
Perhaps a silly question: if there is only one DVB-T2 mux broadcasting in the UK, why would anyone need more than one DVB-T2 tuner?

But surely, one (expensive) DVB-T2 tuner and one (very cheap) DVB-T tuner would do just the same.

Most (all?) small PC cases accept only ITX motherboards, which have only one PCI-E slot. So you could install only one PCI-E tuner card. A quad-tuner card would give you four tuners, but if you wanted more tuners you would need to use the TBS eight-tuner card, or use external tuners, either USB tuners (available with single or dual...

When I tested MP 2.5 some months ago using TVE3.5, I found that "scan for channels" failed to find any channels when I selected a DVB-T2 tuner (a TBS 6284) :(, but succeeded when I used a DVB-T tuner (a Pinnacle 2000i) :). Obviously the Pinnacle found only those channels broadcast in DVB-T MUXes (in the UK we have both DVB-T MUXes and...
