Can someone tell me what kind of channels you would get with something like this? It's so cheap and it looks pretty cool, but how does it get television channels? Sorry if it's a stupid question, but I would still like to know!
No tuner is specified, so it's impossible to tell. An ATSC tuner would be needed to get digital broadcast, but no mention of that was made. If it has an NTSC tuner, you might get the stray analog broadcast stations out there, if any are still on the air in your area. To answer your question-there is no way to know what it can pick up with the info provided.
@Bill----Oh-I didn't realize that. Sorry. I don't know how to paste the picture in, but these are the details about it:

It's 50 bucks, and the reviews said it doesn't pick up a lot of channels, I guess it depends on where you are. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it. It did look pretty cool, to me but I don't know anything about that kind of stuff.
