Digital TV on your Eee PC: A mixed bag

I've just thrown up a tonne of photos of my ASUS Eee PC hooked up to an ASUS My Cinema U3000 Mini (just rolls of the tongue that one does, doesn't it?)

Haven't got time to do a full review or upload video of it in action so just check out the pictures (there's more in my collections if you really feel the need...)

One thing I will point out is the amazingly bad build quality of the device. Mine came pre-broken (plastic case-wise) but as it was so cheap I figured it would be more hassle sending it back for a replacement. It's gonna get battered anyway.

It's really using an external aerial

Yeah, er, reception isn't really great on the tiny supplied antenna. But that's to be expected. The surprising thing is sometimes (in some places) it does work.
