HDHomeRun Prime TV tuner officially available for preorders for $249, six tuner version next week

After a false start when it passed certification earlier this month, SiliconDust’s three CableCARD tuner HDHomeRun Prime is finally available for preorder from Newegg for $249. The release date is scheduled for June 29th but those interested in getting it hooked up to their HTPC as quickly as possible may want to wait until next week when the six tuner 6CC version goes up for preorder, as those are expected to begin shipping first. There’s no volume discount on the tuners at $499, but at $83 per tuner you might be able to justify it as a better value than the four tuner and also network sharable InfiniTV 4 . Either way, if you just need a bit more information before purchasing it can be found on the sales page, on the linked PDF below or in the video trailer embedded after the break.
