Maybe you should check out the TiVo Community forum before you get too excited. It looks like there are quite a few problems with the new TiVo. It has put me off totally. If and when they have this box market ready I might reconsider. I certainly will not fork out more money for a box that does less than my current V+ boxes.

I remain convinced that the only real advantage this TiVo has is a larger hard drive. I know that DF will come on here and praise things like uTube, a fancy search and other as yet unseen "apps" but ask yourself, what do we really use the box for? Watching and recording TV and that is what the V+ does brilliantly. The new TiVo will not be able to match it until all the promised add-ons, such as the third tuner, are up and running. How long are you prepared to wait for all these features to be introduced and have all the inevitable bugs cleared?
