Pinnacle's HDTV Flash Stick Records Directly onto itself

July 6th, 2007

WE RECOMMEND

This USB TV stick is for our British friends. The Pinnacle PCTV DVB-T Flash Stick combines a digital TV tuner and 1GB flash memory into a USB dongle. Unique to this hybrid is that everything you need to watch and record TV is pre-installed on the flash drive, meaning you can stick this to another PC and start watching HDTV right away without repeating the same installation on different PCs.

While the software can save the stream into space-saving DivX format, the bundled 1GB storage isn't going to hold a whole lot of shows. This also limits the length of time-shifting as this feature takes a significant amount of space. The Pinnacle PCTV DVB-T Flash Stick ships with a mini remote and an antenna. Our American readers can still opt for this PCTV Hybrid.
