PEAKHARDWARE International Co., Ltd. (PEAK), one of the leading suppliers in computer components, peripherals and related hardware products in Taiwan, has launched its new dual-tuner DVB-T digital TV USB stick successfully in the UK. The dual-tuner feature allows users to watch and record two channels of digital TV programmes at the same time, and the new tiny design is to meet the increasing demands of high-quality portable TV watching in Netbooks, PCs and other mobile display devices.

"Due to the digitalisation of TV programmes around the world, more and more countries fully support the development of the DVB-T protocol and provide high-quality digital TV programmes free of charge. Their efforts have reduced the entry barrier and made digital TV programmes more accessible,” said Albert Tung, PEAK’s product manager. “Through our partner, VIP Computers, we have successfully introduced our new dual-tuner DVB-T digital-TV USB stick to the UK market. This latest product incorporates a dual tuner which can watch and record two channels at the same time.”

With its compact size and high-speed USB2.0 interface, the new PEAK digital TV stick can receive and record DVB-T TV or radio programmes on your hard disk either in real time or via scheduling, and it also supports the functions of frame capture and time-shifting of programmes. PEAK’s DVB-T digital TV tuner series now includes DVB-T digital TV PCI cards and USB sticks in both dual and single tuner versions; these devices have features such as Quick Setup, Channel Auto Scan, Teletext, Electronic Programme Guide, Favorites List, etc. Those features make digital TV programmes accessible anywhere for the user’s immediate enjoyment.
