The MCE cards are Media Center Edition cards. They typically don't come with
a remote, but often include an FM tuner. Otherwise, they are pretty much the
same as the non-MCE versions. There are 2 exceptions to that rule, though;
there are retail MCE bundles which include a Windows MCE USB remote
(different from the remotes included in the non-MCE packages), and the
PVR-150MCE included in the retail bundle doesn't have an FM tuner.

All of these cards work just fine with the latest ivtv drivers. Just stay
away from the Hauppauge USB devices -- they don't work at all.
