With the Freecom DVB-T USB Stick, you can watch and record Freeview digital TV and Radio on your computer without monthly subscription. The Freecom DVB-T USB stick is characterized by amazing compact dimensions of only 28 x 15 x 86 mm and an ultra-light weight of 25 grams. This minute digital receiver is therefore perfect for mobile, cordless TV and radio reception. The only equipment required is a laptop or desktop with a USB 2.0 port. An IEC connector is also included to connect to a normal aerial to get better signal. The Freecom DVB-T USB stick offers much more besides convincingly sharp picture quality; in combination with the hard disk, it becomes a digital video recorder. In this case the user has the choice between “live” recording and convenient programming by means of the timer function. This is where the EPG comes into its own, which lists the complete TV schedule of all broadcasters, and provides brief descriptions of the individual programmes. Accessories Included Freecom DVB-T USB STICK External DVB-T antenna Remote control USB extension cable Quick Installation Guide Freecom warranty registration form Freecom manual & application CD 2 Years manufacturers warranty and unlimited helpdesk support

Customer Review: Super product at a market leading price
I have had excellent results with this product i picked up all the same channels as i did with my house aerial. This product is well packaged and easy to use, the remote control is a useful addition. Coming up to Christmas at this price it makes it an ideal stocking filler !
Customer Review: Digital TV stick
Maybe my signal area isn’t too hot but i found this piece of kit to be pretty bad. I couldn’t pick up alot of channels that i thought would be a given. I couldn’t get any of channel 4’s catalogue other than e4+1 and i struggled with ITV’s armoury too. I often had drop outs and annoyingly long freezes, whilst my digibox in the room next door worked perfectly. the little arial it comes with is a joke. anyone that tells you they get a picture with that sorry excuse for an arial is a joker too. The remote control is about as convenient as getting up off of your comfy chair and using your mouse, which doesn’t give using the mouse enough credit. I ended up returning mine after a week, after feeling that there could be better products on the market. There were. I exchanged mine for a KV World PCI option, which instantly picked up every channel in a quater of the time and came with a fantastic remote control (and receiver too). I’m now able to sit anywhere and shut my PC down with this remote. Very usefull. No signal drop outs and no problem scanning. I wouldn’t recomend this knowing there are other options that are much better on the market. I never tried the recording with the Freecom DVB USB stick but with the constant drop outs it didn’t seem worth it.

Customer Review: Samsung LE40M87
Written by Jamie Balfour: The M87 is BRILLIANT! I used to own a Samsung LE32R88 and it had good picture, but that is nothing compared with this. Buy it now. I have a Toshiba Blu Ray and HDDVD Player with it, plus a High definition DVD Recorder and it makes them look amazing. Using HDMI increases sound quality as well as picture, and the component video is ideal for the Nintendo Wii or Xbox 360 (although I have an Xbox 360 Elite plugged into my HDMI socket). 3 HDMI, Component, Composite, 2 SCARTs, S-Video, VGA D-SUB Monitor for PC, it has far too many ports to use, which makes it great! It took a while to set up the picture as it was a bit odd at first, the factory settings weren’t the best. No problems here though Samsung! I only found one large thing to argue about: No DVI port on the back, you have to buy a HDMI to DVI adapter, which I own, but it does use up a HDMI port which could be put to better use. I RECOMMEND THIS TV. For more information about how good this TV is, contact me: jamiebalfour04@hotmail.com
Customer Review: Early days but so slick so far
My Tv came promptly yesterday as promised. Easy to set up and use. Viewing is superb and crytal clear. The sound is very good too even though reviews elsewhere have stated that the sound it not that good on a Samsung. I have only one issue with this TV and its the fact that when you turn it off by the on/off switch on the TV the red light stays on like its on standby. Not sure if its just me though. I would recommend this Tv.
