Now that I know I can't upgrade my antique G4 from USB 1.1 to USB 2.0, I have to return the Elgato TV Micro USB 2.0 that I bought for it.
That being said, is there a device that I can use to put TV in my G4 iMac with USB1.1 and Firewire 400? Thanks!

Do you want to just watch TV? Or do you also want to record it?
If you just want to watch it, then you could look at something like the Slingbox. You hook it up to your cable box/line (or satelite box or antenna) and it then streams the video/audio across the network. It can work with DVRs, DVD players, and VCRs...depending on which model you choose.
