Here is the overview from the manufacturer:

HAVA Titanium HD

The HAVA Titanium HD offers flexibility and convenience when watching TV on your PC in the home or out on the deck. Turn your PC into a PVR and record favorite TV shows directly to an internal PC hard disk or an externally attached USB hard disk or simply burn them to a DVD for playback or archiving purposes. HAVA Titanium HD also allows you to timeshift (pause, fast forward & rewind) your live TV on any PC so you will never miss that pivotal sports moment again!

With the HAVA Titanium HD you can connect any HD video source and watch TV on a Microsoft Media Center, XP or Vista PC without having a TV Tuner installed. If you have multiple PC's on the home network, no problem, HAVA can stream live TV to multiple PC's simultaneously and to another internet connected PC or cell phone somewhere else in the world!

Superior Viewing Experience

HAVA leverages proprietary wireless vBooster technology to deliver an optimal viewing experience.

• Users can continue to use their wireless network for all the services they are used to (web browsing, e-mail, chats, printing, file transfer, etc), while watching high quality video wirelessly. vBooster, while introducing powerful new functionality, leaves your existing 802.11g network intact. It is fully compatible with the 802.11 standard.
