Sony PlayTV dual tuner DVB-T
Sony PlayTV is a USB 2.0 device containing dual DVB-T tuners. It is sold without a remote, as an accessory for the PS3.
It is supported under Linux.
Overview
This device, vendor id 0x1415, product id 0x0003, is based around the DiBcom STK7070PD reference design and has a STK7070PD frontend and two DIB7070p tuners. An advantage it has over similar devices is the use of a single external antenna cable, which is used to drive both tuners, rather than requiring external splitters.
See Wikipedia [1] for more info on the device itself.
