Where can you buy this K-World tv box, the widescreen version (supporting up to 1680x1050). P4,500 daw sabi sa isang forum.

From the diagram, when using the PC, mukhang all display/sound will pass thru tv box/tuner before being outputted to the LCD & speakers - so TV signal and PC activity will just be like PIP. When the PC is off, the tv box will just provide output to LCD and speakers. That's my assumption.

What if i want to use the PC for normal PC tasks? Does the LCD have 2 VGA/DVI inputs, one coming from the PC and one coming from the TV tuner? What if i want to use the PC for normal PC tasks while watching TV?

Yes, the TV tuner has speaker outputs.

Yes, it has, so you can use the LCD to watch TV and at the same do your PC work/game....

Also, TV tuner has a remote controller and you can do a channel search ala PoP....It's a great setup!

Walang antenna sir, the usual input nya is yong galing cable(coax yata tawag), pero meron naman mga adapter or DIY na lang para antenna ang gamitin na signal reception.

yup, yan nga yata. advantage yata nya sa Avermedia TV Box 9 is the support for 1680x1050 resolution, na supposedly for widescreen, and the slight lower price. don't know really ano ba talaga effect nyan sa resolution compared dun sa lower max resolution ng TV Box 9 which is 1280 x 1024.
