    Am I the only one who finds this Vista TV tuner a bit flimsy in the way it goes and stays in the express slot. It hangs out more then it should and the slightest bump can pop it out. A side from that I'm impressed with the OTA HD reception I'm getting on like 4-5 network channels. No static !!! Just using the included antenna. A much better experience then the analog version I had on my old dv6000 and XP Media which pulled in 3 channels of crackel and pop static images.

    Most TV tuners stick out - there just isn't enough space to jam all the required parts into the small area of an ExpressCard slot.
