Default When will ATI have USB TV tuner for laptops?


When will ATI have USB TV tuner for laptops? Or even digital TV
tuner. Are they lagging behind Pinnacle and other companies in
this area?

What's wrong with the Hauppage USB tuner ? Guy I work with got one
(after discarding his HDTV Wonder) and likes it a lot better than the
ATI stuff. ATI has a DTV tuner to replace the discontinued HDTV Wonder
but why do you want one?

If you look at the software updates, they just supply drivers to other
vendors software.

It seems to me that none of Hauppage USB tuners does ATSC. If
i'm wrong, point me out with their model number.

I don't have the model number in front of me, but there most definitely
is a Hauppauge dual mode NTSC/ATSC tuner. The problem, from my
perspective, is that there is no triple-mode NTSC/ATSC/QAM tuner (QAM =
HDTV over cable)
