While I'm not certain about that, from what I've seen it seems fairly well supported. You very well may know better than I but I would stunned if there really wasn't any support. I already have a remote wonder so I wasn't risking anything, but for other people that may be a deal breaker. Also, just because it might not be there doesn't mean it won't. In my opinion the card itself is worth more than 52 bucks to me, thats all.

You must be lucky one. I got numerous (probably around 10 or more) open box/refurb from Newegg, and ALL of them were bare board/card only. Maybe I am unlucky one? I don't know.

This device is a significant step up in image quality, but bear in mind we're still talking about NTSC TV, so it's not incredibly good, either.
