"... if you have limited space and you don’t want to deal with having a dedicated television and DVR, or if you would just like seamless integration between your DVR and your iTunes library, then you should definitely consider the elgato EyeTV Hybrid."
"The EyeTV's best feature, however, isn't its hardware but its software. Its program guide offers the same kind of point-and-click simplicity that TiVo owners have grown accustomed to, but in an iTunes-esque interface that allows find-as-you-type searching for programs. Oh, and you can use a real keyboard to type your searches too."
”...sets a new standard for Mac TV tuners.”
Eric Suesz, Macworld

“Kudos to Elgato for creating such a seamless experience…”

“...I am quite smitten with it.”

"...if I was setting up a Mac Mini as a media centre, this is the first product I’d stick in the back of it."
Tony Smith, Editor RegHardware.co.uk
"The EyeTV has a ridiculous amount of functionality which I haven't even touched yet. As a straight up TV replacemant, though, it is outstanding --good quality and easy to use. There's also something neat about watching the telly on a laptop screen, and if a movie comes on I can just hit the "record" button, just like the old days of VHS."
