Ok, AFAIK there are Version 1.3 & 2.1 card out there. Someone was
talking about a 1.6 card, but probably it was never sold.

The different version have different chips (tuner,demodulator) on
it. Version 1.3 seems to be well supported by the driver and
newest cvs driver does a good job with 2.1, too.

AFAIK now only 2.1 cards are sold.
