Anyone know if this hardware is compatible with this latest version of Premiere? It worked fine with Prem Pro 1.5. But I am running into problems with CS3. Wanted to check here before I try to track down someone at Canopus. TIA.

Just an FYI for everyone else:
Canopus' (now defunct) DVRex RT Pro is not compatible with Adobe Premiere beyond Pro 1.5. Not only that, their replacement for said product (EDIUS hardware) is also not compatible with Premiere. The list of CS3 (officially) compatible hardware seems to be dwindling. According to Adobe's capture card partners page:
http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/capturecard_partners/
the list of approved hardware vendors includes AJA, Black Magic, Bluefish444, and Matrox. Black Magic likely goes out the door if you have a Dell box: They do not "officially" support them (though with an extra restart, I can get my Dell Dimension 8400 to work with Intensity Pro). Bluefish444 is way too expensive for the prosumer. I get a "talk to the hand" and a scowl from my buyer if I mention Matrox. That leaves AJA which currently has no HDMI solution. Anyone got a Multibridge Pro I can test drive with my Dell Precision 650 Dual Xeon? Dell issues aside, I am a big fan. :)
