    NEW: Digital Radio USB Dongle

    This Digital TV & Digital Radio USB dongle certainly looks promising, here's the data sheet for it, but I was really hoping this would be able to relay TPEG traffic data, but I don't think it does...

    It's both! Digital TV has been available via USB for a while as I'm sure your aware, not as compact as this mind you. However, I've not come across any with DIGITAL radio to boot, FM yes but this is the first USB DAB radio with DVB thrown in as I see it.

    Just the one USB on the motherboard?? There may well be pin outs for more ports on that actual board, or you could just use a usb hub if you need more ports....
