>>The problem we have is that DirecTV hasn't re-upped with the TiVo people, and the new MPEG4 HD PVRs that are coming from DirecTV won't be TiVos.

I'll probably be able to figure out a new interface, but I'm not sure the wife will.<<

A DirecTV rep last week told me they have a large stock of the Tivo powered units if you ask for real Tivo instead.

The problem is that they don't have MPEG4, which will be required for the new HD channels.

I've got two SD DirecTiVos, so I'm good on that.

Early reports on the new HR20-700 HD DVR are favorable.
