I am sort of waiting before I do anything hardware wise. I might upgrade to non TiVo DirecTV DVR in the mean time. I'm also considering building my own DVR out of a computer and a TV card. I'm sure you'll be able to read about it here eventually. I can't wait either. I am sort of waiting before I do anything hardware wise. I might upgrade to non TiVo DirecTV DVR in the mean time.
