This device is not going away:

I also just clicked on the amazon link from the above page, getting 
here:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00198MYB0

And yes, the detail says the manufacturer discontinued it.  That has to 
be a mistake.  No idea why it should be saying that.

Oh, and if you look through the user comments, there's two in the list 
which mention the pvrusb2 driver - one has links that point right back 
to here :-)
