Anyone got an Elgato Eyetv 250 plus? .... 250plus vs Diversity

Tossing up between either buying a 250 plus or DIversity.

  • I like that the 250 is powered rather than running off USB (heating up)?
  • Obviously you get a lot more capabilities w/ 250
  • I would rather run from a set top box or cable so the two antennas supplied w/ Diversity doesn't really worry me.

I have read the Mactalk review of the Diversity and it looks great.
I've also checked the product comparison > http://www.elgato.com/matrix/index.php

  • I'm hoping the 250 will be better quality.
  • Price wise they are quite close w/ 250 being a bit more.
  • Its cool I can hook up a game console to the 250 (anyone done this ?)
  • Comes bundled with a basic version of toast

Im using a IMac Extreme 2.8 Ghz running Leopard. (anyone got any performance problems w/ the 250 and Leopard?)

Has anyone heard of any rumors on any new Elgato products coming soon?
I was a little concerned as the 250 is a year or so old now.

Any opinions or feedback would be greatly appreciated......
