Works great

I caught this gadget on sale for $49.95 but even at full price it's a great gadget. My niece did not have a TV in her dorm room in college but she did have a laptop so this was a cheap way to get her a TV. I liked it so much I bought one for myself as well. It's handy when your regular cable box/DVR is tied up and you need to record something else simultaneously.
The Titantv.com website makes it really handy to record shows that although some of my unscrambled QAM channels would not record by clicking on the website. You could however manually set up a recording so that worked okay.
Note that unlike some other reviews, you do NOT need an extra infrared receiver to make the remote work. There is an infrared pickup on the device itself although the cheap little remote is a little bit flaky. The buttons pushed very hard. It's really just easier to control the thing on your computer.
Overall a wonderful gadget highly recommended.
What's great about it: DVR function is really handy. Turns your laptop into a TV/DVR
What's not so great: Some unscrambled QAM channels don't work from website
I would recommend this to a friend!
