You can see the TV works but, er, it didn't a few hours later. It's my parents' TV and they've lost the receipt. Arghhhhh...

Previously on Fresh Plastic... Anthony had an Eee PC 701, a USB digital TV receiver and posted an article showing the two working together. Meanwhile the Eee PC decided to split, the USB dongle lay dorment and ultra tiny laptop TV seemed a long forgotten memory.
Well, those days are long gone and I now have an Eee PC 900 and she ain't going anywhere (fingers crossed). She has a much bigger screen but housed in almost the same sized case (although she's a tad bit heavier, psst - don't tell her that!)
