I'm going to buy a Compal IFL90 based laptop and i have to choose between a
1 gb Robson NAND card or a DVB-T in the PCIe slot. The price is the same,
but neither are supported under Linux right now. Which one will be most
usefull later on?

If you live in a place where DVB-T is available or will be available in
the near future, and if you bet that there are enough people who buy
your unnamed DVB-T card and are interested and talented enough to buy
that card and develop a driver for it, then you should buy the DVB-T
card.

I have no idea what a Robson card is, and 1 GB doesn't sound really much
nowadays. But if you live in place where memory is sparse, yadda yadda,
....

You don't really believe that we are clairvoyants, do you?
