I think it was in 1998 when it was first released.

In 1998 wass the wishlist-YES
Was there suggestions-YES
Did it have PVR functions-YES
Could a user go backwards through the epg-YES.

So yes, in 1998 Tivo was the future.


To be pedantic (& I often am) It should either be "the future is Tivo" (questionable)
Tivo is the future (for now perhaps)

or Tivo is the latest PVR ( Guess thats as close to the fact as you could get in a short sentence.)
But you are right of cause it is none of these things. Its a rehash ( As I have said else were). Was 98 its launch in the states - I thought I had one earlier than that. However my memory is not what it was.
