Product Description:

Amazon.com Product Description:
TiVo's Series2 DVRs deliver more recording capacity at a lower cost than original TiVo models. TiVo DVRs record television programming directly to a digital hard drive, eliminating the hassles of videotape. This Series2 TiVo offers 40 hours of recording time in a sleek chassis (15 inches wide by 11.5 inches deep and 3 inches high).

The Series2 has two USB ports for ready connectivity with your home network. This connectivity also gives TiVo subscribers optional access to exciting entertainment services, such as music, digital photos, and multiroom viewing and scheduling via the Web. The TiVo DVR Series2 is compatible with virtually every television. It also works with VCRs, TV antennas, cable systems, and satellite systems. A patented remote control simplifies program recording and controls multiple TiVos within the home (two devices can share your existing phone line). Connections include three video inputs and outputs (S-video, composite-video, and RF coaxial), one set of stereo RCA analog audio inputs, and two sets of stereo audio outputs. A standard female RJ-11 telephone jack is the channel by which the Series2 accesses the TiVo service, or you can use a USB cable to connect to broadband.

TiVo automatically records your favorite shows.

TiVo subscribers can pay $12.95 per month or a one-time product lifetime fee of $299. Among the many benefits of TiVo service are Season Pass (TiVo automatically finds and records every episode of a series all season long, even if the network schedule changes), WishList (TiVo finds and records programs that feature your favorite actor, director, team, or even topic), Smart Recording (TiVo detects lineup changes for you and suggests programs to match your interests, if desired), and Showcases (exclusive entertainment plus recording shortcuts from some of the most popular networks on TV).

Now, through your home network you can access TiVo's Home Media Features. This services provides remote scheduling capabilities from anywhere you have Internet access; MP3 streaming from your PC to your TiVo so you can listen to music through your home theater sound system; digital image viewing from your PC so that you can create slideshows on your TV; and multiroom viewing, which allows you to connect two TiVo Series2 DVRs in your home so that you can record on one and watch on another.

- I love you, Tivo
You have been a trusted friend and companion for 5 years, after our first try failed. Not one mistake, mistep, fail or falter. You have been super.

Now you are worth next to nothing and I am selling you for $10 on Craigslist. Sorry. But that new HD simply rocks.

- A Happy TIVO Owner
TIVO is one of the few discretionary electronic purchases in our home that we would absolutely replace immediately if necessary. They are expensive to purchase and if you purchase a lifetime support option, even more so. However, I would recommend this option if you can afford to purchase it since we have more than offset what monthly payments would have cost us over the years.

There are many things we like about our TIVOs. A few are the ease with which you can record (and delete) programming. Also, the many recording options that allow you to record only new programming or new and repeated programming; the ability to record programs with a specific actor, singer, producer or topic without ongoing manual intervention; and the number of programs that can be stored on the TIVO. We feel that the TIVO saves us money in the long run. Before we had TIVO, we would rent many movies during a month and now ... Read More

- Get it, use it, love it, live it....
I could never leave the house again, thanks to my TIVO, they are upgradeable, and have the BEST program guide/interface of anyone. There Tivo to go is very glitchy at this point, but the TIVO service itself is top notch, I am about to get my 3rd tivo box. The two I have, this and another have acted flaky occasionaly, but it was usually assosiated with one of there updates. It is slower recently, but still very useable. The only hardware issues I have either fixed themself or on one occasion I realized that I was baking my tivo in my entertainment center(oven) it needs room to breathe, especially if you have a crappy comcast cable box near it, the two create a lot of heat, just make sure its not enclosed or near a heat vent. Overall it will change your life, and how you watch tv. A lot of the problems people have had in a lot of these reviews is due to not knowing how to use the box, read the directions carefully.

- Owned it for 2 years now... LOVE IT !
In 2 years we have had no problems at all with the TiVO box itself (80 hrs version), and the remote is still in excellent shape, which is really surprising considering the very, very heavy daily use of some of its buttons.

I started updating the programming over the phone line, but now I am doing it over my wireless LAN with an adapter. I read a comment about this not working for a user after testing 3 adapter models, but I am guessing that he did not notice that Tivo requires a VERY specific adapter model (e.g. "Netgear WG111* -- Only serial numbers starting with WG72.").
I bought the then obsolete adapter from eBay, and no problem !

The only complain I have, is that the latest software upgrades have somewhat slowed down the response, and I have also noticed that the connection to the wireless LAN is lost sometimes lost, and need to reboot Tivo to restore connection to the LAN.
