There is this which claims to be dual:

There seems to be some new tech coming out. This thread:
http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air-pc-dvb-discussion/212969-dvbworld-software-blindscan-released.html
Talks about new software out for dvbworld cards that does blind scan
(yes, windows only software. But anything that can be done in ms can be
done in linux). The thread also mentions a new chip out with blindscan
included.
This company also claims blindscan but it also seems to be a windows
driver they made: http://www.prof-tuners.com/eng/prof8000.html
