With its reasonable price, flexibility and great remote control, this card gets our recommendation. If you want to add TV to your notebook using the PC Card slot, this is the product for you.

Although we do have some quibbles with the interface and the EPG, which gives programme schedule details up to one week in advance, this is still a very neat way to add digital TV to your notebook. And the price isn't outrageous either.

At £74.99 (incl. VAT) the AVerMedia card isn’t a particularly cheap option, but it performs well, is reliable and relatively easy on system resources. As a result, I have no hesitation in giving it a hearty recommendation.
