TiVos Series2 DVR delivers plenty of recording capacity in addition to offering entertainment services like digital music, digital photos, remote scheduling, and hassle-free favorites recording. All this and the famed luxury of being able to pause and view instant replays of live television, too. TiVo DVRs record television programming directly to an onboard digital ATA/IDE hard drive, eliminating the hassles of videotape (imprecise tape searching, head cleaning, steadily degrading picture, fuzzy sound, etc.). This Series2 TiVo, model TDC540140, offers 140 GB storage for up to 140 hours of recording time in TiVos best-looking chassis yet. Less

While spending a few hundred dollars to invest in a Tivo player isn't on the top of everyones list of things to do, it does save a ton of time, effort, and aggravation if your looking tape things on television a lot. If your like me, then you have a busy schedule and have kids who want to watch...

Cons
Curious future with cable DVR competition. Pricey without rebates.

The somewhat fragile cassettes necessary with these...

Alright, this year Santa brought TiVo to our house and after 2 months of usage the feelings are mixed towards this new companion. It does pretty much everything it claims to be, but there is enough room for improvement that keeps us from getting all too excited at this point.
