SDIO TV Tuner brings analog TV to your PDA

By: T.O. Whenham

If you can’t get enough TV time in during the day, but don’t want to give up your PDA in favor of a mobile TV phone, Eopstech may have just the ticket for you. Their SDIO TV Tuner is an add-on that will provide analog TV to your PDA. It is compatible with both NTSC and PAL, meaning you can take it with you on the road. It will work with Windows Mobile devices. It comes with a lanyard style antenna with built-in signal booster. The tuner is powered by its own rechargeable lithium polymer battery which provides up to 2.5 hours of life on one charge. A USB DC power cable is also included. Audio output comes through stereo earphones, which are included.

The target for this device is either people who don’t have access to a cheap mobile data plan, or people in countries where digital mobile TV service is not yet available. The tuner will be available in March. No word yet on the price.
