[mythtv-users] What about this? Hardware mpeg encoding, cheap!

[John F. DeLuca]

I an unsed remote (actually 2) for my PVR-250 and 350 (the silver/gray one) which I 
don't use because I prefer another remote (My Tivo Remote). I'd be willing to sell mine 
for $15 + shipping if you want.  I'm sure others have these remotes gathering dust as 
well so you might be able to get a better deal.  Not really looking to get rid of 
mine...moreso looking to help out.
