    I've just bought my nox and was promised a tv-tuner in it, as the specifications also says. But when I opened my box the only cable I found was the power cable and now I'm sitting here with no idea on how to use the tvtuner inside, just a little hole with "tv" standing on the side of the laptop.

    I've been thinking that they've forgot to give me an antenna or something, but really I don't know. I've sent them a mail, but they're very slow and constantly delayed.

    So anyone who bought the nox that got an atenna with it?

    Does Device Manager show a TV tuner? It will probably be under Sound, Vision and Game Controllers?

    I asked them serveral times if it has tv-tuner and they said yes. Also there's a little "tv" input thing in it. My specifications paper says it's a MMCX tv input..


    There is no such thing. Allthou, the specifications .pdf file says there's a MMCX tv input, the cd from zepto also contains tv tuner drivers. These drivers are from REALTEK and is called "REALTEK DVB-T USB DEVICE" which is rather odd, as the MMCX input is on the right side of the computer.

    Take a look:

    I got an antenna with my Nox, but it doesn't have a tv tuner. The specs didn't say anything about a tv tuner, so I knew it wouldn't have one. Nice of them to include the antenna anyway. :)
