Oooh, that is a good deal.

Are TiVos still as popular as they once were? I am the only person I know who has one in NS, because most people have DVRs through their cable company. I love my TiVo more that a human should...especially now that it's network w my computer and I can transfer back and forth.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think most people get a dvr through the cable company, it is cheaper if you are paying for cable, BUT, I don't have cable, so for me, a tivo and service is cheaper.

I never got the one I have now working wirelessly, but if I get this new one I really want that and I want it hooked up through my computer if possible.

“Not dead yet!”

I hate my satellite company's DVR and miss my Tivo immensely. But the Tivo 3 and our satellite weren't compatible.

The satellite co's DVR is illogical.

We still use my homemade DVR with two tuners and 2TB of space.

I only spent, like, two days in Paris and now I want to go back RIGHT NOW.

Zen, I started with Paxil and transferred seamlessly over to Celexa, which maybe isn't quite as effective, but doesn't make me gain any more weight.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My 3-year plan will rollover onto it and then I'll pick up with a new plan next spring.

I'd double check that if I were you - I know the lifetime plans can't be transferred to new machines. (Even w/ the upgrade pricing, a new Tivo + plan for me would be about $600 out of pocket.)

I'm glad mac is doing better. Continued ~ma heading your way, msbelle.

Owen is adorable. I hope he has an excellent first day.

I can't wait to read the bat book!

I only spent, like, two days in Paris and now I want to go back RIGHT NOW.

When we went to London, DW and I went to Paris for a day and regretted not doing longer the second we got there. We were nervous about not speaking the language, so we did a guided day tour (Eiffel Tower, river cruise on the Siene, and Versailles). We loved it so so so much and have talked about it frequently over the 3 years since we were there. What an amazing place! Must go back!
