It works exactly as advertised. The accompying software installed with no problems and the unit delivered excellent tv reception. I have already recommended it to several of my friends and co workers.

I like this product; it works not only with the software that came with it, but with the Window Media Center as well. I would advice anyone to purchase this amazing product. Thanks you for selling me this product.

I am on the road a lot in rural areas. The stick performed great in areas where the signal was strong. If you are going to be out in the boonies I suggest you get a long coax and put your antenna on the roof. The stick gets really hot so be cautious about what you set up next to. Other than that the install was easy with my Vista. The channel search did take a few minutes but with a little patience I was tuning in local channels with no problem. And the price....best I've found.

Works great on the 5 different systems and three operating systems that I have tried it on. System speed will affect picture quality. The faster the better. Use it with over the air digital stations via the included external antenna, or hook it to your cable and watch TV on your computer or laptop screen. For the price, very functional product.

Huge disappointment. Other then 30 mins installation time, it also won't function properly on my VISTA system. Can't help but wonder where are all those good reviews came from. (I am an Electronic engineer with 13 years exp. in the field)

This is a great device, now I get to catch up on my games whenever i'm in the office slaving away. It's so compact that I can just hide it whenever my boss barges into my office.

This is a truly a excellent product. I use it on my large screen LCD computer monitor. The Arc Soft software functions flawlessly and it is easy to follow the step by step installation and setup instructions. It pays to know your channels as there is no guide to the program selection. I purchased the product for $69 from ECost with a $40 mail in rebate. I then purchased a coaxial cable splitter and cable from eBay for another $5 including shipping and that was it. One can also use the antenna provided for use with your Notebook while on the road. Your PC or Notebook must meet certain specs in order to install and use this tuner; check the specs on line at KWorld. Great investment.

This nice little gadget works wonders when I was traveling around the country without internet. I have my IPTV already, but without internet there's not much I can do. Anyhow, setup was a breeze, and the compact device is really nicely designed!

Now that my son is studying away from home, sharing common spaces have become a problem for his dorm-mates. I've bought this product for him, just so he can avoid that problem! According to him, it works, so that's all that matters!

This product has good features. However, when I tried to received HDTV signals in my area of San Jose, the device could only receive 5 instead of the 12 recommended by the other reviewer. Also, there is very little documentation and debugging for problems. I wished I could manually set the channels also but there is no option to do this. Overall, this is a good product but seriously lacking in documentation and any help.

I was very impressed with the performance and features of this compact device. I especially like the Digital/Analog tuning capability. Some over-the-air stations are not operating at full power until February 2009. If you are in an area where reception is not good enough to receive a Digital signal with the antenna provided. You can normally get something with the Analog receiver with the telescoping antenna. The install routine was very simple and straight forward. The composite video capture is nice for transferring home movies to you computer. Great product!

I received this product (as always, fast from Tiger), put it in my computer and wow it did work right away, :0) and software is simple. The only problem I have is that when I try to record my home made videos from VHS to Digital it is always saying that it is copyrighted material :( Again, it's my own home videos and I didn't put copyrights on it. On my laptop it works great, my desktop No! Also when I plug a cable from my wall into it, it finds no channels. But the antennae that came with it picks up only local channels, but I want to record from Cable TV. I was really let down, because I have been looking for a product like this for awhile. I guess I will have to keep looking for a more worth while product.

Overall pretty good air flow through the whole device, so it doesn't heat up too much. (I just hope things don't blow up in my face!!) Anyway, this sleek baby makes me a proud ownere everywhere I go!

I can't believe this slim stick can perform that well. I live in the New York Area, the reception for digital channels is quite good. (and if I bother with buying a better antenna) it'll probably be better. It seems like there's no heat problem at all (holes on the bottom seems to feed the device with air)...Haven't tried the recording function yet, well, maybe update later when I have the time. All and all, good buy! Cheers!

Know your computer! This device has fairly high system requirements. I was able to set up the Kworld HD Stick 330 on my computer in less than 15 minutes. I live in the city of San Jose, and so over the air signals easily reach my home. The tiny antenna pulled in 25 digital channels, about half of which had great picture and sound. Analog over the air was terrible, but you can hook up cable if you want. I did not try any recording features. I expect recording will be a hassle due to windows standby and wake up modes. I also do not know if the recording software is any good. If not, I'm sure we'll soon see plenty of software to support this type of device. I had bad luck with analog cards from Pinnacle and AverTV. This Kworld stick does the trick!
