First of all, the supplied antenna was no use at all, but no surprises there. I got no channels using that, when I used the adapter and plugged it into my main antenna however, I got 70 services. The picture quality wasn't quite a match for my TV, but it wasn't a million miles away.
Secondly, the supplied software isn't particuarly inspiring. It gets the job done but in a rough around the edges kind of way. If your a Vista user I strongly recommend using Windows Media Centre instead; you can't use the supplied remote but the picture quality and EPG are far superior.
Overall, a great bit of kit for the price, highly recommended.

This is an amazing device and I really love it. It is very impressive that such a tiny device can turn a laptop to a digital TV and recorder.

The remote is very handy and gives me more freedom to control the programs.
The only annoy thing is that the Blaze player keeps asking me to register when I have already done it. Contacted the August technical team and have been told I need to run the Blaze as administrator because I am using Vista and ... Read More:
