High definition USB TV stick from AverMedia
AverMedia debuts their HD ready USB TV tuner called the DVB-T Volar. With this USB flash drive shaped tuner you can avoid installing a TV tuner card on your PC or laptop and still get all the terrestrial channels available. AVerTV DVB-T Volar allows you to enjoy digital free-to-air TV programs with just one connection to your notebook or desktop PCs without carrying an extra bulky power adapter.
