re: Does TiVo set reminders?

Tivo does not have reminders as yet. Could a Mod please correct the title of the thread or merge it with an appropriate thread please?

Re: Does TiVo set reminders?

As TiVo has three recordable tuners there isn't a need for reminders. However they are being worked on and will be added in the future.

Your last line sums it up " virgin customers wanted the feature" that's all that matters.
