so that she did not miss it.
had to tell her that the software will prob be updated to incorporate that later in the year.
:Peaceman:

It may get added later but as its not a current feature of TiVo it may take a while. There is of course a 1TB HDD to fill, she could always just record everything ;)

I just want to know all the facts, I got a ticket and email today. I am pondering on whether to go for it.

Edit; just done a search on google and someone on TiVo forum http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb...d.php?t=465263 is saying it uses 3 KWH a day or about 120 watts an hour, if true, it is very thirsty.

He is saying it uses 3Kwh less per day than his S1 TiVo not that the VM TiVo uses 3 Kwh per day.

As the Tivo has only a 7 day history in the TV guide I'm guessing the Flux capacitor still needs work.

My VM engineer is here now - Tivo is being installed..........!

Although we had organised on the phone, to have our VHD box be installed in a third room. Having the Tivo downstairs, V+ in a bedroom and VHD in a bedroom which was agreed. The engineer has no record of that but is installing it for us anyway. I wonder what fuss I'll have with customer services now regards pricing!
