Simple.TV has announced that its namesake device
would be shipping this DVR solution for mobile devices to customers in
United States beginning September 27th, costing $149. The DVR
automatically converts HD content using its integrated TV tuner (whether
receiving HD over-the-air signals or ClearQAM digital basic cable) and
turn the clips into MPEG-4 formats that can be playable in mobile
devices.
Apart from streaming to iPad, iPhone, and Roku devices, Simple.TV can
also deliver content to a web browser on any other device with the help
of an HTML 5 player. This service is, in essence, a blend of Slingbox and TiVo.
Unlike other DVRs, however, Simple.TV does not play content on the
TV, as the device is specifically designed to deliver content to
non-traditional viewing platforms. It can be connected to a router
through its Ethernet plug, as well as a USB 2.0 hard drive, but it does
not work on WiFi.
Cost for basic service is free of charge, wherein owners can enjoy
in-home streaming of live content and pause live TV recorded shows.
Meanwhile, the premium plan is available for just $4.99 a month,
featuring out-of-home remote streaming, scheduled recordings for series
programming, and an electronic program guide.
