Guest awarner (MVP) Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 nedge2K over at MSMobileNews has had a chance to look at the new SDIO tv tuner by Eopstech. "Mobile TV is looking set to become the next big thing for PocketPCs and Smartphones alike. That's all well and good if you want to buy a new device just to keep up with the trend but what if you don't? Well, for those of you with full size SD slots, Eopstech have come to the rescue with their analogue SDIO TV tuner!" An interesting gadget but at
Guest Dade Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 I can make two 9-letter words with the Countdown letters! retainers and ternaries. Do I win a prize?
Guest MARKUKCOUK Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 I can make two 9-letter words with the Countdown letters! retainers and ternaries. Do I win a prize? Thats the countdown conundrum no doubt, but congrats anyway! Mark Head of Modaco Countdown Division
Guest peekie Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 Its probably not going to catch on until it is a digital card and by 2010 it wont work , anologue tv is allready being switched off in the uk , nice idea though
Guest Disco Stu Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 I can make two 9-letter words with the Countdown letters! retainers and ternaries. Do I win a prize? Well you learn something every day ! :) (programming) ternary - A description of an operator taking three arguments. The only common example is C's ?: operator which is used in the form "CONDITION ? EXP1 : EXP2" and returns EXP1 if CONDITION is true else EXP2. Haskell has a similar "if CONDITION then EXP1 else EXP2" operator. Peekie, surely 4 years is long enough for a widget of this nature to have a decent life ? The problem is finding programmes worth watching now that the World Cup is coming to a close ;) :)
Guest sporkguy Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 If that's the real quality of it... and having to cart around something of that size... no thanks!
Guest peekie Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 shame its not a mini sd as all the modern phones have that nowadays
Guest dpeilow Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 shame its not a mini sd as all the modern phones have that nowadays Given the size of it you might as well buy a pocket DVB-T set, several of which are on the market now. They don't need line of sight either, unlike the claim in the review.
Guest stevodude Posted July 27, 2006 Report Posted July 27, 2006 too big too heavy reason for a pocketpc/smartphone, is portability... now if it was the size of an actuall SDcard, that'd be usefull.
