In addition to television, PVR2GO can be used for audio (MP3 and Windows media audio), viewing JPEG images and playing games.
PVR2GO comes with integrated speakers and 3-D surround sound, has a stereo headphone socket and wireless headset support and analog TV output for large screen viewing and sharing. Connectivity options include USB 2.0 for content downloading and 1394 for multimedia distribution.
