TBS6983 Dual Tuner Pci-e card

Saw this card on one of the Spanish sites and thought it would be a great card to test with sr as low as 100. (See picture of Hispasat). This is the updated version of the TBS6925. This card has been out since October and it is slightly high in price, but it is a dual tuner card and there is software support. I believe TBS is working on a dual tuner usb version too. Still looking and tempted to replace my old Prof card.
