Miglia ships TVMini2
Miglia today began shipping the TVMini2 digital tuning device designed specifically for Mac users, and announced new promotions for European as well as UK customers looking to purchase iMacs. The TVMini2 features a stylish ultra-slim design to serve as the smallest USB device of its kind available, according to Miglia. It slots neatly into a USB 2.0 port, without blocking any other ports/outlets, including the MagSafe on MacBook Pro systems. Miglia's TVMini2 is priced at £60 in the UK or €80 for European customers.
Miglia is also enabling any UK-based customer who purchases a new iMac to also buy a Miglia TVMini 2 for £1 until December 16th, while European customers who purchase a new iMac can receive a Miglia TVMini 2 for just €1 until December 31st.
"TVMini2 is powered by a high performance Tuner and Demodulator. Inherited from the mobile TV world (in car entertainment for example), this technology translates into a much higher performance when it comes to signal reception," says Miglia. "TVMini2 captures your TV shows in pristine MPEG-2 digital quality, without modifying what is broadcast by TV stations (MPEG-2 is the video format used on DVDs)."
The device enables users to put music videos, TV shows, and movie recordings on to iPods or other gadgets. TVMini2 also offers an export function in 'The Tube' to create h.264 video files that are readable by Apple and Sony devices.
UK Only

From what I can see this is only going to work in the UK?

Has nothing to do with U.S. T.V. so I really don't see why anyone hear would care.

True but I wish Macnn would be more informative and tell us that it is not for the US.

.. it does say for European and UK customers (perhaps the writer doesn't know the UK is in Europe) and does only list £ and € prices... maybe that's a clue to US-based people?
