JoeH...
I've just been playing with one of these
and I'm very impressed.

I just borrowed it for the evening but at £40- £45 I may just have to
have one. LOL

andon...
Great reviews. HTH for onlookers

JoeH...
Thanks for that andon.

I was very impressed with it when I tried it out the other night. With
the supplied (mini) aerial the picture was good on most channels but
did break up on a couple. With the external aerial the picture on all
channels was perfect and rock steady.

Unfortunately I couldn't persuade my mate to let me keep it until my
own arrives ;-)


BoyPete...
I have a Hauppauge Nova T. Good fun :)


Ponder...
I've got Windows XP Media Centre Edition and have to agree. A most useful
piece of kit, especially for a shift jbexer :-)


Aries...
Looks good, do you need an aerial?

JoeH...
The little one which comes with it works fine here although an
external "grown ups" aerial will of course be better.

Aries...
I MUST have one - burfday coming up LOL


Anita Carter...
If you are a customer of sky you can use sky broadband on your computer - as
long as you have XP that is :)

West Stand Bowler...
I qualify on both counts. How is it done?

Anita Carter...
it is free if you are a customer of sky :))

West Stand Bowler...
Thanks Anita.

Anita Carter...
You are welcome :)


JoeH...
Thanks Anita that's very interesting.

With an average file size of 1gb per movie, you need to be careful if
your internet account is capped.

JoeH...
That's the beauty of the TV on "a stick" or card, it uses no bandwidth
at all - you get lots of radio stations too.

Aries...
Just the job :D
