Dell have announced a “thumb-sized” USB digital TV tuner for their Inspiron Mini range, turning the subnotebooks into free-to-air digital TV receivers.
The tuners are to be released in region-specific versions, designed to receive local broadcast standards and Dell says it expects the tuner to ship “later this quarter”.
Dell say the tuners will work with their customised version of Ubuntu Linux (8.04), Windows XP and Windows Vista Basic.
