In an Arabic forum I’ve read a post with the subject: P800 works as a TV
The guy said that he’s using a TV tuner from a Sony palm TV and he make some major changes with the main board so now he be able to receive the local TV channels with his phone ….. Good creation.
A downloadable file containing photos and a movie of this innovation:

So are you saying that he made major modifications to the hardware in order for this to work, so it's not likely to be released as an add-on? Or was this purely for testing purposes? If so, how would a finished product connect? MS Duo? Bottom connector?
I think that if it connects via the MS Duo they should make a unit that also includes a bigger battery, larger battery cover and any of the additional components so that while it will inevitably make the phone bigger at least it's all in one unit and would not adversely affect battery life. Can you imagine what it'd do to the battery otherwise????? |

sorry firas the video you send me is not that good quality & are not that different than the others so no sence posting it... but if you insest ok
B.T.W the guy "citycat55" said that he tried the MS TV tuner for the Sony palm but didnt work no the p800 ,the only thing he confermd is that he made major changes in the main board + the antenna frome the back socket the one used for the carkit |
