Best way to record HD from a PS3?

As you can see, I’m a complete noob on this forum, and I’m not even sure whether this thread should go in the console area, or not. Anyways, I’m going to be purchasing a PS3 in the upcoming months, and I’d love to be able to record gameplay in HD (I love recording gameplay in all my PC games heh), particularly Gran Turismo 5 ^^. I only have a Samsung 206BW, with 1 DVI and 1 VGA input.

Anyways, I was wondering what you guys would think would be the most cost-effective solution for recording in HD, from the PS3. HDMI output is unrecordable because of HDCP unless I get an HDCP stripper, which is, as far as I’ve seen, too much money. From my research, the best solution I’ve found is this,

I can get one of those when it comes out, and as long as it works, that’s a pretty good price, afaik. Since my monitor is an lcd, I’ll use the HDMI output with a DVI adapter for normal gameplay so I get the best image quality.

I’ve also heard about some wireless HD recorders from Silicondust and other companies, would that type of tuner work with this setup?

Thanks in advance. :D
