I checked overhere in the Netherlands but I don't think they are available here, all webshops (the ones I checked) indicated it would take more than 10 days to deliver.

I got a reply from sales at hauppauge. They are still producing, but had production constraints, said 5 weeks should be back to normal....at least its not discontinued Smile

Does this MediaMVP do Wireless networking or not? On the QVC website it says that "The Media MVP connects to a LAN via its built-in wired (10/100MbpsEthernet) or WiFi (IEEE 802.11b) network interfaces. ", but the hauppauge website does not mention WiFi at all.
Can any current owners confirm or deny the wifi thing?

There is a new model coming out that includes wirelesss, but its not readily yet. Existing MVPs are not wireless.

Well having just received two from QVC I can say absolutely no WiFi. (Mine were revision D3A too).

Have to check mine when I get home, is D3A good or bad?

I got it a few days back and its been working like a champ (after I applied Tipsters Patented Network Tweaks). Even the girlfriend loves the set-up!

Sub, when I've finished moving house and have some dosh to spare, i'm chucking a nice donation your way!

Dabs is back now to 3-4 weeks on delivery, im going to keep that order up, because this is working so nicely, I plan to have a second MVP in the bedroom.

However, I notice elsewhere that Wireless MVP's are finally being spotted in the wild on Hauppauges .com site, but no mention of it on the .co.uk site. Wonder how long it'll take to reach the uk? Less than 3-4 weeks? Hmmmm.....

Going from my fuzzy memory D3A is fine it was the D3 that was faulty.
