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).

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!
Suzi, I just got a thing for a half price HD tivo, is that what you want to upgrade to?
Ooh. For $149?
Yeah, I thought I'd pass the love along. You want?
Sure!!! I just looked at my account and I've had the current TIVO for 5 years this Christmas. Wow, hadn't realized I had it that long.
ETA: Nevermind. Does not support satellite.
hold on, if there are TiVo coupons, I would love one. I am thinking about upgrading mine, but I'm not sure if I want to spend the $$ or not.
BTW, my TiVo has lasted since August 2003. I replaced the hard disk in it and everything.
Until I replaced it just a little while ago, my TiVo had been going since 2000.
the only reason that I got a new tivo is that the cable box wouldn't talk to my tivo. it worked fine when I lived in VA. My brother had the same trouble with his cable box, and we thought it was the tivo until I moved to DC and had the same problem.
I'm having some computer glitzes. The monitor is flicking in and out (it goes to black for a couple of seconds and comes back), and occasionally parts of the screen looks like fuzzy noise, then it gets better.
Monitor issue? If that's the case, I can switch the monitor. I really hope it's not the hard drive or motherboard issue.
ETA: and the computer freezes for a few seconds while the screen goes glitzy. And it's been doing that more frequently! (must make sure backup is up to date right now!)
