Rating: - GREAT ON MACBOOK PRO!
Very nice product. The picture is very clear, the sound is great, and depending on where you live, you will have good amount of HD channels (as well as analog channels). You can also hook it up directly to your cable jack but you will only get analog channels.
The HD Stick essentially turns your Mac into a DVR. You can pause live tv, record to your computer or external hard drive and even schedule recordings. The equipment is portable and i can carry it in my laptop bag without it looking ... Read More
Rating: - Works quite well; should upgrade to full EyeTV
Installing was quick and painless on my MBP. I had to download the latest EyeTV Lite package from the Pinnacle site since my computer is running Leopard, and used the included serial number to activate.

Rating: - Is it really worth it?
The Pinnacle for MAC HD Stick is a truly neat concept. I say concept because it does pull in both analog and HD terrestrial broadcasts and you can hook it up to your cable/SAT.

Rating: - Installation CD would not load - No supoort
I will never know how Amazing this device is because the CD would not even load. There is NO SUPPORT for this product on their website and the Support Phone Number provided in the box has a recording that says NO SUPPORT is provided at this number. You are then directed back to the website that doesn't even mention this product. 3 strikes, your out! Back in Box!!
Even if it works out of the box you better hope you NEVER need support. Don't bother!
Rating: - Best Hd Stick for MAC
Best HD stick for a mac works with the indoor antenna if you are living off the signal tower prefer an external antenna for better clarity and more channels
