Don't buy this card if you want to use it in a permanent (i.e. vdr) setup where your computer is on 24/7. You will notice disconnects every now an then rendering the device rather useless...

Well our experience with the T500 differs to yours. We have multiple T500's in multiple 'permanent' vdr installations that are running 24/7. We don't see disconnects under Kubuntu 7.04. The only area where I can say we have had some issues with the T500 is related to its ability to hold onto a signal in some situations. It seems more sensitive to transmission quality/strength than other cards or external usb DVB devices we have tested. But in our experience these have been relatively minor issues. All I can say is that is our experience.
