I know I could just wait until July and get the 'baby tivo' for a reduced cost - but having read how Tivo works, I think that the 1TB hard drive will be necessary to store everything that it records via Wishlists/Suggestions?
Currently getting very fed up with the small capacity of the V+ as just about everything I record is HD and I keep having to delete things I would like to watch because the drive gets full up.
So difficult - wait or not? The other thing that is making me think perhaps I should wait is the number of posts on forums all over the place saying that people are having problems with the tivo. I believe September is the next proper firmware update to solve a lot of the issues?
I keep going round in circles - one minute I want Tivo NOW, and the next I'm thinking of waiting 'til the Autumn....... What do others think?

I posted the above post in early April. How stupid could I have been????
I should have waited - then I could have used the red button on my V+ for Wimbledon and then bought the Tivo at a far lower price than I was being given with their 'special offer'. It makes my blood boil that the price has been reduced only a matter of weeks after us so called loyal customers were hoodwinked into thinking we were getting a special deal.
Poor show, Virgin.
