RE: [ukha_d] Tivo for £199 inc VAT and Next Day Delivery

["Timothy Morris" <timothy.morris@xxxxxxx>]

What I don't understand is that for those of us that use Sky Digital as
a tuner, what benefit a Tivo brings. You can't record one channel while
watching another, and for those that say "all the stuff on Sky is
repeated", well it isn't - not if you spend most of your time watching
BBC 1 & 2 with a bit of C4,E4 Sky One and Discovery thrown in just to
fill in the gaps.

I just wish the Sky+ box came in black :(

Darren and I got one each at the weekend.  He really went out of his way
to
get me it, delivered to my work and everything.  Then HIS ONE didn't
work
(it was a USED one) while mine is brand new.  I felt bad :(

We got them in Currys.  =A3229 but they gave us 10% off.  Dunno if it was
because we bought two or because it was a new store just opened.  Worked
out
at =A3206

Anyway.  Don't buy one..they're crap.  Stick with a PC and showshifter!!

OK...I Lied...IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!! (Ken will be along any moment to gloat
now).

Been using it for about a day now.  First impressions are excellent.
Bit of
a bummer having to wait 4 bloody hours for the thing to
set itself up though! Anyway...I went out for the afternoon :)  But it
_IS_
incredible.

Recorded a pay-per-view movie on it last night.  Watched about half
before
Mrs fell asleep.  Can finish it tonight.  Niiice.  Did the forced update
thing last night around midnight (Darren showed me how) and I woke up
this
morning to the new software 2.5.5  Oh...and it had recorded a suggestion
already!  I have "Sex and the City" setup as a season pass on
CH4.  It
had
seen an old episode on the Paramount channel and grabbed it!  I love
this
thing already :)
