Telegent Systems TLG2300 TV tuner is so small. Measuring at only 10mm x 10mm, the device is perfect for use in the netbooks. However, this TV tuner will draw more power from the netbook’s battery.

The TLG2300 is also the first single-chip CMOS in the industry to support DVB-T, PAL, NTSC, SECAM and FM Radio signals. [Product Page]
