You guys may well be right about the demise of TiVo. However

1 - I love my TiVO because of its hackability. I am able to grab shows from LINUX off my TiVO onto my Laptop when I travel. I put weather maps on my TiVO that I can access onscreen any time. This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as what can be done with any of these devices - including the HD Tivo.

2 - After using my friend's HD DVR - and I don't know what it was but she is in Raleigh/Durham - that thing was a PIG next to my tivo. Yes it was cheap HD and I am jealous for that, but the functionality was no where near Tivo. Are these things hackable?
