    Can anyone recommend a cardbus laptop card that supports YPbPr input? Or any kind of HD signal? Even a VGA-in would be awesome.

    Thanks in advance

    You basically need a TV tuner that can have a YPbPr input. Even the very low end cardbus (PCMCIA) TV tuners have this ability.

    However, I don't think that they will accept Hi-Def signals without downcoverting the signals.
