Equinux has released its "TubeStick", a hybrid tuner that comes in the form of a USB key that includes two receivers for HD broadcasts and digital or analog cable signals. It was announced earlier this year but is now for sale at $129.

Also included is an antenna and software for the iPhone and iPod as well as the computer for portable viewing, with some basic TiVo-like functions (scheduling, rewind, etc.). The TubeStick can be used with Windows machines too, but it's clearly being marketed for the Apple Nation with a paint job in basic white.

S O U R C E

for you fatreg and all mac users

tranced, you wouldn't know if this has input for composite video, like the Elgato eyeTV Tuner, or possibly even component as this one does HD?

Ahh it does composite and s-video, was thinking it might do component as it does HDTV, if it had that I'd be sold on it.
Would love my iMac to be my telly and display for my 360!
