With hundreds of thousands of households cutting the cable cord each year, many are looking for a simple, cost-effective solution to supplement their Over-The-Top programming from Netflix and Hulu with live television.

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) January 06, 2014

Nuvyyo today announced the pre-order availability of Tablo, the new DVR that lets cord-cutters access free local HDTV broadcast programs on any device, anytime, anywhere in the world — without the expense or commitment of cable or satellite contracts. In its first public appearance, Tablo can be seen and experienced hands-on at CES Booth #75101 in the Eureka Park TechZone.

Pre-orders are now being accepted directly through the Tablo website at http://www.tablotv.com with units expected to ship in February.

The perfect accompaniment to over-the-top (OTT) streaming video, Tablo delivers live and recorded Over-The-Air (OTA) programming to any connected device, for a crystal clear HDTV viewing experience.

“With hundreds of thousands of households cutting the cable cord each year, many are looking for a simple, cost-effective solution to supplement their Over-The-Top programming from Netflix and Hulu with live television,” said Grant Hall, CEO at Nuvyyo. “Tablo gives TV lovers the DVR functionality they know with a vastly superior tablet interface to access free local HDTV programs whenever they want on whatever device they prefer.”

How Tablo Works
The Tablo DVR plugs into any HDTV antenna to capture free broadcast network programming including news and sports within the United States and Canada.
