I believe the tuner on the left of the picture hasn't been activated. ;)

True, I didnt think anyone would spot the red infinite loop VM logo wrapped around the first tuner. I will have to kill you now;)

Typical VM - where's the built in pop-tart toaster?

They have you this time;) Its a horizontal front loading poptart toaster, with a TiVo logo on it. You can get four in there.

Do you have to be on XL to have the PopTart functionality? ;)

Yes, but even then you can only toast three different flavours in it. The others are all exclusive to Sky.

Darn Sky and them buying all the exclusive rights to certain PopTarts!
Better call in Toastcom and the Competition Comittee

Any HD pop-tarts?

Or pop-tarts+1 functionality, with the red-button option?

Given the time-stamp on these posts, I'm thinking the content of the posts and the time they were posted are inter-connected (by a certain type of liquid).

I'm betting some people have got sore heads this morning :rofl:

Does it have on-demand, or do you only get pop-tarts at a scheduled time? Does it only do pop-tarts, or are other toasted breakfast products available?

Muffins are being added in the next software drop, however its reported these will only be in SD and you have to butter them yourself.


Next upgrade after that we are hoping for a direct connection to your toater so you can start toasting in the TiVo 4 and finish it in the toaster in the kitchen.:)


Sadly we are unable to offer the following due to grease setting fire to our second prototype......

Virgin can at last boast that they have a 3D product in the pipeline. "So good you can even eat what you see"

That's pretty nifty!
Add a few sausages, a bap, tomato sauce and I'm sold!
