I don't know, if you are already using an HTPC for dvd with your lt150 (which is the combo that started all the hype-and rightfully so.) Then you can add a 40 dollar input card (or a KBK hotrod for around 140) and using free software get an image that rivals (some say surpasses) the dvdo series of scalers. This sounds like a strength to me.
Last night I did a comparison to my iscan v2 and dScaler(HTPC) and the differences were negligible. While the image was initially brighter on the iscan, I was able to change the gamma, contrast, and everything in-between, to give dScaler the edge.
I'd ask this question on the HTPC forum, if I you want more confirmations.
