    The above commenters are on the wrong track, but still more or less correct.

    The TV tuner would not work in the US, but not because we’re soon switching to digital TV signals. “It features a 1Seg TV tuner built in…” 1Seg is a digital signal… But one that’s only used in Japan and Brazil :P

    i got a digital usb Dtv tuner for 50 bucks from newegg.
    sans the 4 gig storage, which here it’s probably slower so i’m not crying about it.
