Hey, for the record, I got that Netgear b/g router linked upthread, and it totally works, and I don't notice it being any slower than I was before. Good times!

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Hee. I saw you announce elsewhere, jesse. Are you wondering why you didn't do it long ago?
Renfield the iPod has developed a weird noise.
Has it started eating flies?
If that made Renfield stop making the funny static-y noise, I would be fine with that. The reset did not seem to take care of the problem. Crap, I'm going to need to save my spending money for a new iPod, aren't I?

Yeah, now I feel like a jackass. Although I still have the power plugged in.
I'm thinking of upgrading my TIVO and am not sure which service plan to go with. I have a lifetime agreement on the old one and they are offering either $99 a year or $299 for a new lifetime on the new one.
With the way technology is changing, is it worth it to do the lifetime and get value on it over 3 years? Or does the annual fee make more sense?
I went with the lifetime - my first Tivo lasted 6 years (and was still going strong, but it wasn't HD so I replaced it) so the lifetime sub more than paid for itself. I can't see myself having the money to significantly upgrade my AV system again in less than 3 years.

Suzi, I just got a thing for a half price HD tivo, is that what you want to upgrade to?
That is what I'm looking at Vortex. They are offering me an upgrade with $100 off...so it is $149 (plus the service, plus another wireless thingie).

Ooh. For $149?
Yeah, I thought I'd pass the love along. You want?
