by the looks of it, they mainly concentrate on USB devices these days.

Yeah, something else to make a PC look even more untidy with more wires and box's, and another power brick to plug in. Rolling Eyes

the latest nebula usb devices don't have an external power brick.

Internal cards have just as many wires as well. 1 for the aerial lead and 1 for the remote sensor. USB = 1 USB lead and 1 aerial lead.

You can hide the remote sensor quite discreetly with the PCI card, as the sensor can be hidden behind the monitor etc, and it only has 1 thin wire. The aerial is hidden behind the PC.

The USB has a big white box, with a chunky aerial cable going into it and a USB cable, so not so discreet, as you have to have the box in view for the remote to transmit to it.
