    I have the HP express card TV tuner. But I lost the dongle that connects it to the CABLE. Can some please help me find where just to buy that peice. I can't believe that $150 card is useless without that littler metal thing.

    Thanks

    I would start by calling HP Customer Service and give them the part number of the express card and explain your problem. I would imagine that if you could buy a replacement part it would be directly from HP.

    Check ebay. There are sellers there who sell just parts of the package. Email one of the ones who is just selling parts and see if he has a spare cable to sell if you can find a listing for just a cable. Get a price and then call HP. HP prices are usually really high, so it is good know the price for an alternative before you call.

    Lots of people are selling kits on ebay. At least a while back, you could buy these sets/kits in bulk (10 or 20 sets). Many people bought these sets in bulk and now are reselling them individually on ebay.

    The express card is too expensive... You can get the same quality of tv from a 100 dongle from pinnacle or something
