Hi Stewart,

I was looking to put my Tivo up on eBay next month, but would prefer to
sell to someone here.  Contact me off list if you interested.

Correct.

It's the size of a standard VCR.

It'll work like a VCR, I believe.  However, it's the features that come
with Tivo that make it the killer app!

Cheers,
