Free is always good – I don't think you'll hear many people arguing otherwise. But when you can get a free TV tuner, well it doesn't get much better than that.Fry's is currently offering a KWorld USB 2.0 PVR-TV 300U TV tuner on their website which comes out to be free after a $30 rebate. Sure it may not be a world class tuner or anything, but if it's free I'd snatch one up pretty quick.
This is a perfect opportunity for all of you who have been tempted to try building a PVR but didn't want to spend too much money on it. Assuming that you have a computer with at least 256 MB of RAM and 1.6GHz CPU, then you can snatch this baby up and away you go.
The downer about this offer is that it is a mail in rebate so you'll have to cough up the cash now. But by the time you get that cash back in a few weeks you should be all set up with your new PVR.
