As far as I know I will need a component cable for the PVR to PS3?
EyeTV software as I use a Mac.
Optical cable for the headset for 5.1 sound.

Anything else?

Also, a few places seem to be out of stock of the PVR, Amazon and Play. Does anyone know of any places selling it for a similiar price that is in stock?

As I said in the post above, I have subscribed to all those who have links in the thread / sigs. Will check some of the vids out later.
Can't hellp too much on the Astro's, but for the HD PVR, yep, component cable for video and audio to the pvr, then optical to your headphones. Get the official sony component cable if you can as I had a few problems with an old PS2 cable I was using (swordfish had some issues too I think) You get a component cable with it to go from the PVR to your tv. You can use either EyeTV or HD PVR Capture steventoth.net » About which is a bit cheaper than eyetv if you're buying, it's developed by one of the guys who works at Hauppauge
