Check www.linuxtv.org - it's the primary linux dvb web site. You will probably find that the Nova-T card is the cheapest one available - it's a fairly basic card with no mpeg decoder (you'll need to do that in software). You can find this card on ebay for a lot less than $269 (european sellers have them for 99 euros, about $150). Fortunately, the linux dvb stuff is becoming very mature and there are a few excellent full featured applications around (eg MythTV and VDR). I speak from experience, as I've got live DVB and TV setups for various formats running (DVB terrestrial, analogue and satellite).
