Re: 500GB tivo

Other than the memory capacity, will there be any noticeable differences?

Stephen, been away - is TiVo 500gb now available to buy for immediate install or is it just advanced notice- I thought it was July?

When did they announce the third variant of TiVo with the VERY SMALL disk?

A 1GB disk would only allow you to record about 7 minutes of HD programming.

But at least you would be able to record 3, 2.33 minute programmes at the same time!
