The tizi brings live TV to your iPhone/iPad

The equinux tizi brings digital TV (DVB-T/TNT/DTT) directly to the iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch via an integrated wi-fi hotspot.

Getting live TV on your iPhone and iPad is on many people’s wish list, and now it’s possible, with a handy wi-fi TV transmitter from German manufacturers equinux.

The pocket-sized tizi device, costs 149.95 Euros (£127.24) and has a replaceable Lithium-Ion battery with a life of up to 3.5 hours from a single charge, additional batteries are available. It can be recharged via USB or by using the iPad/iPhone power adapter.

To view programmes on the go, all you have to do is turn the tizi unit on, select its pre-configured wi-fi network and start the app on your iPhone or iPad.

Users will need to download the free tizi app to their iOS4 device from the tizi.tv website. The app provides a basic EPG TV guide and also allows programmes to be recorded and stored for later playback, or copied via iTunes directly to a Mac or PC.

The equinux tizi is available now from the tizi website and from Apple stores. It will be available from other Apple resellers from January 2011.
