Just saw one of these today, are there any apps for something like this?

I used to use a program made for Linux that allowed me to control a tuner card on a PC. Here is the page: http://tunerd.sourceforge.net/ (http://tunerd.sourceforge.net/)

I\'m doubting it\'ll work as is with a Zaurus but it may be something to try out and tinker with.

If you find anything that works w/o modifications let me know. Thanks.

If I ever get into programming, I\'d like to get this card to work with Linux.  I\'ve got the same card sold by a different company, and it works great in my PocketPC.

bigj, thanks for the link. I\'ll check it out, I never had a tuner card but I seem to remember some people having them and working well in Linux under KDE/QT and Gnome. I know how to program though this is something I have never done. I\'ll do some research and see what I come up with.
