Elgato promising in-car TV reception at over 100mph!

Among the most interesting of the many interesting products we saw at September's IFA show in Berlin was a pre-production sample of a twin-tuner Hauppauge digital terrestrial TV USB stick that held out the promise of watching TV on the move in a car and also in areas where reception is normally too poor.

That product is still not on sale in the UK - though we're hoping to get hands-on next month - but the same hardware is used for a Mac variant, EyeTV Diversity, produced by Elgato, the leading exponent of TV reception on Macs, and available now from the company's web site for €149.95 (£100.96), including VAT and shipping.

I must admit I'd rather be concentrating on driving than watching telly at 100mph. :P

I do however get what you are saying, as my iTrip doesn't work that well at 100+ and cuts out about 115mph - ie I get static :(

What is it that, just because I write an eye-catching headline (that seems to have caught no one's eye!), people point out the stupidity of my actions?


:embarrassed:

But, truth is, having seeing aerial diversity technology demonstrated by the BBC at its last R&D open event, I think people ought to take this stuff very seriously because the potential for improved reception it offers in tricky reception areas is huge.
