In Europe ATI have cut loose their combined graphics card and tuner All-In-Wonder product line.
ATI pulled the plug on the project on 1st July 2006, since amongst other reasons they weren't RoHS compliant. ATI will still be developing their TV tuner products in the form of ATI Theatre 550, and 650.
All-In-Wonder could be the first major victim of the July introduction of new RoHS laws as far as hardware and media enthusiasts are concerned, but isn't likely to be the last.
ATI's All-In-Wonder range of graphics cards cum tv tuners were a unique product, with Nvidia never rising the challenge and creating a competing SKU. However, with digital TV tuners widely available and at low prices, perhaps ATI decided there was no point in making AIW RoHS compliant, and thought it best to focus on its Theatre products.
So, it looks like our X1900 All-In-Wonder review could quite possibly be our last look at AIW.
