TV Wonder USB Edition suggested?

Looking for input what I just purchased from ebay. Seller labelled it as "Diamond ATI TV Wonder HD 600 USB 2.0 Tuner Tvw600usbv" but I don't see any HD 600 designation on the box. Can anyone confirm that this actually is a ATI TV Wonder HD 600 USB?

Thanks!

It isn't. Sorry to say, this red ATI TV Wonder USB Edition is a paperweight that pre-dates Windows XP. The manual has a copyright year of 2000 and says that video capture is limited to 320x240 (or 288 for 25fps).

I'm surprised that searching for this product's name on the forum doesn't come up with anything. All I found with similar search terms is a paranthetical from jwillis84:

That's ancient 90s junk from eBay. Do not buy. Bad card. Not the good ATI AIW.

Thanks, I appreciate the response. I cancelled the order last night after doing some more digging. Looking at either the HD 600 USB or the Hauppauge 610 USB-Live 2.

I just saw that on eBay and came to check to see if there were any comments about it. I will stay away.
