Portable Splash

This is definitely an improvement on the usual portable TV experience. It's certainly more portable anyways.

The Aevoe Mobix is a plug-n-play DVB-T receiver that is specially made for laptops and other portable USB computing devices. It unfolds into a small antenna that boosts weak signals while eliminating interference.

You can also use the digital receiver capabilities to pause or rewind live TV and, of course, record your favorite shows. For that, however, you'll need to clear some space on your hard drive or stock an external or two. Recording TV is a good idea, as long as you have the space to store it.
