Yes, it's a great widget but it does not have regional stations (like
GWN & WIN). Maybe that will come.

Subject: TV in a Widget
Hi EyeTV guys,
From this Month's Australian Macworld magazine:
"The moment that Australian EyeTV users have long waited for has
finally arrived.
A functional electronic program guide compatible with EyeTV is now
available from
Australian developer IceTV."
The guide is available as a free Dashboard widget for OSX10.4.
In the free version, you can see programs for the current day's
viewing. For a small subscription fee
($3 per week) you get the full seven-day listing.
The killer feature of the Dashboard widget version of the guide, is
it's easy interoperability with ElGato's EyeTV.
When you select a program using the IceTV widget, you're given the
option to "Add to EyeTV".
Click on that, - the program automatically appears in your EyeTV
schedule. You can then record it or watch it live."

Hmmmm, I have been seriously thinking about purchasing EyeHome &
setting it up with Airport Express.
"Using EyeHome is a snap. EyeHome accesses your existing iPhoto®,
iTunes®, Movies and EyeTV content from your Mac on the TV. The
content appears on the TV organized as it is on the Mac, making it
incredibly easy to navigate and find the correct digital content.
EyeHome can be used without the hassle of having to install and
learn a new application or reorganize any files on the Mac."

Can Xmas come twice in one year???
An email to Daniel for him to do 'The Exercise' (he does it
correctly):
1. Do I need this?
2. Can I afford this?
3. Do I want this?
I always go straight to No. 3 Do I Want This ....., YES!
Cheers,
Ronni
