2. A Comprehensive Bundle

We were surprised by the sheer bulk of the retail box, which is fairly huge considering the card's size. However, a look inside is explanation enough-the box is literally packed to the brim, as Avermedia ships a comprehensive bundle that takes up more space than one might initially think.

Full functionality right out of the box

In addition to the card itself, the bundle includes an external TV antenna with an integrated magnetic stand, a flexible antenna cord for FM radio reception, and an IR remote. External video and audio sources can also be attached to the notebook card using another cable that comes as part of the bundle. The aerial's cable is about 6' long and can be hooked up to the card using a small adapter. Finally, TV software, drivers and a detailed and well-designed manual are also included.
