A nice new toy for your mac

The newest Digital TV tuner for mac form Elgato looks very nice.

I like the twin tuner, twin antenna flexibility that allows you to record 1 channel while watching another or to watch one channel using both tuner to increase the digital quality. That suits me perfectly as in my area the DTT signal is quite unstable (sometimes good, sometimes bad, depends on the channel, the weather,...). It is also very small, so you can travel with it packed with your laptop.
