I'm very happy with the Freecom DVB-T USB stick
(http://www.freecom.com/ecNewsitem.asp?ID=4125)
Size same as memory stick & powered from the PC. Software records in
MPEG format to the quality that's broadcast and which Nero has no
problem handling. Does timed recordings , time-shift viewing ,
multi-channel preview and has an EPG. Works with German , French &
Belgium DVB-T (not surprising since Freecom is a German company). Only
minus I can think of is that , as the UK uses a different system to the
rest , no 'teletext' pages.
And at £50 or less from someone like Dabs , a bargain IMHO.
