Hello everyone. I just put an order in for an Inspiron 9300 a few days ago when the $750 off coupon was in play and added a few features here and there including Windows Media Center Edition 2005. Rather than springing the $150 on the TV tuner at the moment, I spread those funds to other options more important at the moment. I went to call Dell to get a model number or any information on the TV Tuner so that I may order it later as I didn't want to get the wrong one since there are a few to choose from on their website. Also, I wasn't sure if this was a proprietary TV Tuner for the Inspiron 9300 itself or just another 3rd party one. Nobody at Dell knew after being transferred around for almost an hour and the only way they would be sure I would get the right one was to cancel the order and add the tuner resulting in me loosing my discount.
One person in tech support mentioned it most likely was just the Hauppauge USB Tuner with remote they have listed as an accessory at the link below and not a Dell branded product etc.

PLEASE, if anyone out there has an Inspiron 9300 with MCE and the TV Tuner that came with it as an option, can you confirm which one it is, by maybe a model # or any other info on it? Also, if it comes with a Media Center Remote and it it works well with it. If you even have a pic if it is other than the link above, please share if you can. I have searched forums and web pages galore. Thank you very very very much.
