Check out SlingBox if you have a home tv connection and a laptop.

only three things i don't like about vuqube is
1st is the $700 ($629 if you find it now sale) just for the dish.
2nd is the lag time when you channel surf going from one sat to the other like the old C-BAND 10' dish
3rd will not work with my dvr setup (it can't record) from both sat's at the sametime, like my dish can.

vuqube is find it just will not work with the dvr that i have and if you don't mind the lag time 20-60 secs and i myself i can think of other things i can use the money for.

I bought a new computer for the truck last week (it'll be here on Monday). So, since I went to a regular computer, I needed to get a new monitor as well (I used a 17" display on the laptop before). So, I just got a 22" widescreen LCD. All I can say is "OMG!!!"

At 1440x900 resolution, I can sit 6 feet away from the monitor and read the web page.

Can't wait to put it in the truck.

A standard antenna will pick up the digital signal. If the tv does not have a digital tuner, you'll need a converter box or a new tv.
