eyeTVHybrid -- Jack's Picks MWSF2007
eyeTV Hybrid is a USB hardware attachment for your Mac which lets you tune, watch, and record TV on your Mac. You can plug your basic cable coax, or even a set of rabbit-ears, into the device. You can manually surf the channels, or if you sign up for the free TitanTV service, you can use its TV listings to schedule programs to record, kinda TiVo-like.
This is one of the two products I bought here at the show. The first thing I liked about this product is that I have some old home video tapes that I want to digitize, and I think this will let me do that. But the big thing that tipped me over the edge is that it can tune over-the-air HDTV programming. I wanna try that
I paid $99 at the show. Normally it is $149.
