The wait is over. Three days ago TiVo announced their Series 3 player goes on sale. It sounds like it will be available within the next week or so, if it is not already available now. Interesting caveat about the device. Not really a problem with TiVo itself, just a factor of the technology of HDTV. HDTV has more pixels and higher resolution audio. Takes more memory. The new TiVo stores up to 300 hours of regular/analog TV shows. If you store HDTV shows, then it holds something like 25 hours. HDTV seems to cut your number of hours by about 12x. Today's TiVos hold about 80 hours of regular TV shows (if they are cartoons!) and about 40 hours or so realistically of regular action TV shows. I guess 25 hours is very good. Not stupendous though. However, you can hook up an external drive. That will give you more space!! That means more hours of recording. Pretty cool, huh?
