    I have tried many HDTV tuner cards to watch over the air HDTV on my laptop when I travel. Everything is junk or less than satisfactory. Recently I bought a 3.5" Auvio portable HDTV. (Auvio is Radio Shack's house brand.) It is the first HDTV tuner that really impresses me on both signal reception and video rendering quality. But it is a standalone TV. I wonder if any laptop add-on card using the same chip as Auvio does. Does anyone know? Thanks.

    I should add that Auvio 3.5" HDTV impresses me because its video quality is the same as I watch cable at home if not better.
