ATI TV Wonder series are good - the Pro and VE are both very good. They have a Remote version too if you are interested.

I heard about the problems with the ATI tuner cards and HT technology. The newest drivers takes care of that I heard. I have the ATI TV Wonder Pro with remote and love it. I would spend the extra money for the remote since it is real handy.
