 Easy and Affordable Solution July 23, 2008

Bought this item when it was $50, and worth every dollar. I'm currently a student at a university, living in an apartment. I was hoping to find a way to use my 22" lcd as a TV for game consoles, as well as a TV. The product looks sleek and delivers exactly what it states it will. Sure, outputting from my PS3 at 720p doesn't look as sharp as it could on an hdtv, but its hundreds of dollars cheaper and gets the job done well enough.
PIP feature is very nice. Noticed that the stand doesn't really work when all the cables are attached; the weight tips it over. Not too much of a problem, I just lay it on its side.
One issue potential buyers may worry about is the quality out to the monitor through the VGA, or the quality of the audio through the unit out to speakers. Audio from my pc into the box, then out again to my speakers is not very good. Audio from the box (from a game console), however, out to speakers is crisp and good quality. VGA out from a PC to the monitor through the box is fuzzy. I just run a DVI connection out to my monitor, as well as the VGA and switch between the two.
In all, a good product for $50 and an easy solution to convert a PC monitor to a TV.
Great July 18, 2008
I bought this a year ago for 50 bucks. Great converter allows me to play my ps2 (now ps3) on my computer monitor. Allows composite and YPBR Component hookups. Component looks so nice, the only thing I can think of as a negative is it's not HD compatible, but it works erfect as advertised. Also Great to convert your Monitor to watch television obiously (Standalone, no PC needed, just the monitor)
 not "high quality image" May 30, 2008

Eventually returned this item. While the device itself is a good idea, the lack of image quality, specifically the image jumping around all the time, was too much to handle. Its cheap and poorly made, and it shows.
Easy to setup & use March 13, 2008
I bought this product to take advantage of a 23" LCD monitor I had laying around. It was very easy to setup and did the job it said it would. I use it with a Directv receiver so I only needed it to tune to channel 3 or 4. The picture looks pretty good. In the future I make hook it up to an HD receiver and see what the picture looks like.
I have another LCD monitor that needs a tuner. Maybe when this item goes down in price I'll pick up another one.
Very useful device! January 8, 2008

Easy to install, configurate and use. Works perfectly in Brazil. Many options of input cables. Its speaker sound quality could be improved. The dead batteries that came in the package for the remote control was the only problem that I had.
