Good to hear it's easy to get up & running. I got on the list last week. How long did it take to get yours?

Total time was a little less than 2 months....from the time I signed up till I got it.

I was up and running in about 20 minutes....only problem I had was getting the telnet thing to work on my network....still doesn't complete like the instructions say....but it must run enogh to mount whatever needs to get mounted because I can get to GPBVR without issue.

This is way cool....it is much better than the MVP. Time to retire the MVP to the bedroom....

Congrats.

OK, looks like it'll be a few more weeks for me then. Guess I'll just have to be patient. Wonder which'll arrive first...the PCH or the HV-PVR...

Here in Sweden these devices are coming into stock now. So I actually found out about the PCH about one week ago, and since three days I am an owner! Smile

For swedish viewers Kjell & Company and Teknikmagasinet has them in stock, among others.

I got my pre-order invite this morning. They say there'll be a batch available around April 28 and one around May 12. I signed up on April 6. Looking forward to receiving it.

Got mine as well.

Must start reading up on it! (any quick pointer to an idiot guide, to save wading through old posts?) I did see a sticky so I'll start there.

Got mine the same day UJB. Got GBPVR up up and working after a few tweaks. Currently I'm using NTSC composite output to my TV. 640x480 seems best. I even had LiveTV working with a 1080i broadcast for a little while. Seems that I can't rewind when watching mpg's captured with my pvr150 and A/V sync drops when fast-forwarding AVI files but I'm hoping that to get resolved in the future.

What do you mean by a little while? I do the same thing so I can watch the hockey playoffs widescreen and I am having no problems with live tv for 5+ hours straight.
