Hi
I am running this adaptor. few comments

1. the DVB-T reception is not fantastic on the move, but better than pinnacle one i used previously. both ran on external magnetic mounted antennae.
2. the DAB is quite decent while on the move.
3. neither the DVB/DAB does encrypted channels.
4. HD DVB-T reception is a serious CPU hog. I can't get consistent output on a mobile 1.66GHz C2D.

can't test the DMB as we don't have it in singapore, yet.
