Just a quick followup on this...

Thank you to everyone who responded (there were quite a few).  I think I 
have enough datapoints for the 24xxx and 29xxx Hauppauge devices.  I 
have a couple datapoints on the HVR-1950 as well, but that device is a 
lot newer and hasn't gone through as many hardware re-spins as the 24xxx 
has so I think we're fine there as well.  So I don't need any more info 
for those devices.

I very much would like to hear from anyone with a "Gotview" device.  
This is a much more scarce tuner; I believe it's Russian.  I don't have 
one here.  Support for it exists in the pvrusb2 driver due to a lot of 
help / patience from an owner of the device (who I am also contacting).  
If you have this device, I'd very very much appreciate it if you could 
do the above just so I can get at least one confirmation that I will 
(still) have its I2C address configuration correct.

Again, thank you everyone for the responses I've gotten.

  -Mike
