Product : Terratec Cinergy XS TV card
Price : RM550
A TV cunningly disguised as a memory stick – only the flaming great aerial trailing from its backside gives it away
Ahh the halcyon days of portable tellies – tiny Casio screens, dodgy tuning dials and stonking great telescopic aerials that could bring down low flying aircraft.Strangely they never really caught on in a big way but now there is another option for TV on the go: the laptop USB tuner.
This one, fresh in at John Lewis, is particularly pocketable at barely bigger than a memory stick. It's strangely aesthetically pleasing too; at least compared to the black brick designs we’re used to.
On board is a Freeview DVB-T tuner and good old analogue for when digital reception dips. Speaking of which, it comes with both a mini portable aerial and an adaptor to plug into the wall for when you're back at base or near a handy hotel room socket.Surprisingly fully featured, it packs Teletext, timeshifting and a DVR limited only by the size of your lappy's hard drive. A full remote (several times larger than the actual device) is also included along with PowerCinema 4.0 for burning recordings to DVD. Oh, and it's Vista certified too. read more
