If you search the archives 
(http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/) and the net, you'll 
find information on how people have fit cards into their pundits.  As 
for me, I bent the side out of the way slightly to work in my PVR250 in 
the bottom slot.  I also had to move a cord clip that was in the way.  
The card contacts the side of the case which isn't ideal, but I 
preferred that over bringing out the dremel.  So far, so good.
