Broadcasting TV signals to your laptop via a wireless or Ethernet network, the Pinnacle PCTV To Go Wireless (£200 inc. VAT) lets you view your favourite shows anywhere in your home.

Linked to your TV set-top box via the included Scart lead or Composite cable, setup is quick and easy. Using the included software, it's then a simple task to connect to your home network and broadcast the TV signal around your home.

Using MPEG-2 compression, video quality is excellent. Recording, pausing and rewinding broadcasts is simple and effective. Although expensive, this is cheaper than adding a new TV to all the rooms in your home and provides far more freedom when used with your laptop.
