This is an email that I've received from them:




EyeTVs will begin shipping to retailers throughout Europe next week.
If you can't wait that long, you can pre-order EyeTV from a few sources in Europe.
In the United Kingdom, you can send an email enquiry to Computer Warehouse at eyetv@cwonline.co.uk .
In France, you can pre-order EyeTV from the Softline web site ( www.softline.fr ) this week.
In Germany, you can pre-order EyeTV from the Gravis web site ( www.gravis.de ) starting tomorrow, February 4th.
Local resellers in your area will begin to start stocking them in about three weeks.

an app that can watch TV via the internet? Or am i wrong.... ? (will it also available in Belgium martijn?)

[senne]

and do you need hardware for it?

[martijnvandijk]

yes, you need hardware. EyeTV is a piece of hardware with a slot for antenna in (like in the back of the TV) and USB out. you can record 1 hour of TV (programmable) on 650Mb of harddisk. Check out www.elgato.com for more info. It looks like great stuff

[senne]

ah, it's not via cable........... With antenna you can see at 1 channel here, maybe 2

[martijnvandijk]

I think that's the same, cable or antenna. It's just that (in holland at least) the frequencies differ and that there is more channels available.

In Germany EyeTv is 249 Euros! In France it is only 199 Euros! Do you think I can use the french version in Germany? I can order it via online.......

[doemel]

Doesn't France have a different TV format? N-America has NTSC, the rest of Europe has PAL and France has some other format if I'm not totally mistaken. So I don't think you can interchange the French and the German version.
