This story says, "You'll also need an analog TV tuner installed on your
machine":

The article in mobile mag left out a bit when re-writing the original
Gizmodo article:
"It includes Windows XP Media Center Edition drivers, but keep in mind, if
you want to use that, you'll also need a separate analog TV tuner installed.
It's $89 with free shipping. There must be a catch. This we gotta try."
So it sounds like you need the analog tuner card for WinMCE to be happy,
although one reviewer at PC Alchemy said he got it to work on his laptop
with WinMCE but no analog tuner.
Reviews of the unit are not encouraging, although the effort is definately a
step in the right direction.
