Ahh, that questions bring so many things to mind.

There are many uses for USB TV Cards, especially with an open question like the one you posted.

You could:

    Use it as a fishing weight
    Tie a string around it and hang it out of a moving car
    Send it to a poor and needy underprivileged child in Africa
    Crack it open so all circuits are exposed and glue it to your face for a Halloween costume, go as the Terminator!!
    If it's heavy you could carry it with you for self defense
    Swing it around over your head by the USB cable and play gladiator!!
    Play 1 round of baseball with it.
    Play hide and seek with it, you will win!


Or you could see which linux driver will work with it and try mythtv or freevo.
