I was thinking about getting a Nokia N96 wth TV reception and using the Component in. As it has a component out. Control won;t be possible. And using a USB tuner is probably never going to work. You'd need drivers voor WinCE. And that will be a no go. It would have been cool though

You won't be able to receive TV signals over-the-air after February '09 when all stations switch to digital. I just use Slingbox on my phone, which I connect via video out cable to the front aux input of my F90BT - voila, live TV on the road.

terron, he's right. The standard for digital TV, ATSC uses 8VSB modulation which does not work with moving vehicles. (Although I will admit it may very well work when completely stopped) You probably want to wait for products that use ATSC-M/H and for the digital TV stations around the country to add the M/H data to their stream.

I have a digital converter box in my car. It comes with a 12v AC adaptor that I just cut the end off and wired it to the remote wire. It works if your moving very slow or standing still but once you go above 5MPH it cuts out. I was using a magnetic base dongle antenna. I'm still in search of an amplified or bigger digital antenna. It’s pretty cool to watch the traffic channel while your sitting in it. http://www.ezdigitaltv.com/Artec_T3A_Pro.html
