It's over the air, only... looks like it has an FM tuner too. It also has a remote.

I can't seem to find a price.

So, it's like a miniature antenna. That's really interesting. Did you check asus website for it?

The "4GB" memory stick seems enticing, however, considering that you can buy one for $10...if that's the only selling point, not a very strong one.

It has good support across multiple platforms, which is a plus, but it does not have the capability to have an external antenna connected. I wonder how strong of a reception the little dongle has...especially someone in a remote area. Is not like you can sit with your laptop up in a tree like a little monkey to watch the news and see if the bananas got any cheaper.

Before being mesmerized by the "4GB memory", better do your research.

I wonder what the price is?

Here's something similar for about $40, which also works as a video capture device(allowing VHS transfer...).You can also connect your cable, an antenna....Has remote, cable for video capture..However, might not be compatible with all the OS out there.
