USB HDTV Tuner fits in your hand

Looks like this only works in Europe where they use the DVB-T standard, but this is one cool gadget! The TwinhanDT Alpha is a USB 2.0 digital television tuner for your desktop or notebook. Just plug it in to a USB port and start watching the high-definition channel of your choice. If that's not enough the unit also records HD right to your host hard drive or can even burn directly to DVD.

Twinhan also includes an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) so you can decide to watch TV or "PVR" it. The hardware requirements are a little strict, but that makes sense when you realize that the TwinhanDT Alpha is just pulling in the digital signal; your PC has to do all of the decoding work. Either way, for a mere £64, you can't beat the portability or the price!
