The product was delivered in a day enclosed in a huge box with ample protection! Good job Flipkart! Now coming to the device. Pros 1. Has all necessary cables and installation cd. 2. Works for both analog TV and DTH connections(set top box). 3. Picture quality is very good. Same as watching DVD quality movies on laptop if your cable has proper reception. 4. User interface is quite friendly and manual is good enough to get you started. 5. Shows can be recorded. Cons. 1. The audio cable socket is loose. i don't know if it was just my case. But using a cello tape to stick it with the audio out of the set top box(red/white cable) solved it for me. 2.Gets heated up fast, but no noticeable performance issue yet. I have used it for more than 4 hours at a stretch. 3.Slight buzzing sound is heard when you keep the TV volume down, but its covered up when the volume is up. 4. Does not have HDMI port but then most laptops do not have them either. That's why we use TV cards for digital TV. Price is good compared to other TV tuner cards with similar specs in the market. So go for it if you can not buy a TV right now. But to enjoy fully HD TV get a real TV someday!!

Okay, this device is special because I took a risk while ordering it. I wanted to watch tv on my office laptop without installing anything (I don't have administrative rights for installing the simplest of .exe files due to security reasons). Guess what, this device is plug and play if used with VLC media player and standard set top box. You can let the cd/dvd rest in the packet, and use VLC's 'Open Capture Device' to get a perfectly working tv on your laptop. 2 more points I would like to mention which others have complained about in earlier reviews: 1. The audio cable socket being loose - Well, the audio receiver socket is not for the red/white cables coming from set top box, but for the standard 3.5mm jack plug. I had a converter wire with red/white plug on one side and 3.5mm jack on the other, which I inserted in the 'mic' hole of my laptop. Worked perfectly. No cello tapes needed! 2. Remote being a joke: True. But not needed if you use the standard remote controller of your set top box. The remote controller doesnt work with vlc anyways. Not needed.
