TiVo
We’ve joined the millions. We have TiVo! Yep. We took the plunge and made that our Christmas gift to ourselves. We got the Toshiba one that has the DVD recorder on it, so if we record something we like, we can burn it to DVD.
Besides the Season Pass, there one thing I love about it. It will control our cable box. No more problems with compatible remotes. It doesn’t do some of the cable box functions, but we had a hard time finding a remote that would control the cable box for changing channels and such, since we have a Motorola box.
The more we play with it the more we like it. We’ve got several programs set to season pass (CSI, Charmed, Las Vegas, StarGate) and still have a few to program in.
It claimed to only read and record DVD-R, but we managed to get to read a DVD+R last night, so who knows. If all our DVD+Rs work, then we won’t need the 5-disc changer either, so that will mean we only have one remote…the TiVo remote. Woohoo!

Lucky girl! I’ve wanted to try TiVo forever. Maybe when I win the lottery!
