Re: Handheld TVs after switchover?

I wonder also about the signal quality on a hand held at the moment. Its not
just a case of putting up with a bit of a grotty picture, its a case of now
you see it, now you dont.

What happens to small handheld battery powered TVs after switchover to
digital? Anyone know of any small upgrade that you can do to upgrade
these into a digital set?

You can get tiny USB dongles that turn your computer monitor into a
digital TV, so the necessary equipment for digital TV reception can
certainly be very small in size so there must be some way of adding a
digital chip inside current small battery powered TVs?

I know that digital needs more power and if I have a battery power TV
that runs off 4AA batteries and lasts for a few hours, it probably
will only last half that time to power digital, however there could
also be solutions and ways around that too.

There is definitely a market for this and doing upgrades for handheld
TVs, I think they have been ignored completely in the digital TV
revolution so far.
