Dyle-TV going to be the end of cable & dish tv???

[jebartle]

Will this be in our future and the demise of cable and dish tv....
Right now it will allow network channels and a couple of sports channels
for tablets, i-phones, notebooks....Also known as Mobile TV...I think you must have access to a wireless connection....Is there anything out there that can be used for a non-mobile connection?...

What it appears to be is a portable digital TV without the screen. You don't need a connection to the Internet or through a cell phone because you are capturing the digital signal of a conventional TV broadcast over the air. That is why the advertisements will tell you that coverage is very limited.

I doubt that this will catch on to any great degree for two reasons.

1. Most people watch a lot of cable now and this device will not pick up cable.

2. You can buy a variety of devices that have this technology plus a TV screen so you don't have to buy this and attach it to a monitor.

3. Many of the alternative devices, with a screen, are cheaper than this device.

A variety of them are for sale on Amazon. Search portable digital tvs.
