  • Picture-in-picture, Desktop video
  • Quite large, Terrible antenna
  • Considering this is described as thumb-sized, its quite big and whoever is behind the marketing here obviously has very big thumbs. Still, if you ignore the size, and can live without using the bloody awful telescopic antenna, its got some neat featu...

  • Abstract:  If you like working in front of the television, a TV tuner is a handy way to do so. While most TV tuners require you to watch programmes in a separate application, however, Compros VideoMate U500 provides a more flexible way to combine work and lei...

  • Abstract:  The accompanying software isnt the best, but the Desktop TV function is nifty. TV programmes rarely require your full attention and sports like cricket or golf are ideal for leaving in the background while youre doing a little internet surfing or t...

  • Fjärrkontroll medföljer, Antenn medföljer, Möjlighet att öppna flera tvfönster, Bra bildkvalitet
