RE: Tivo coming to NZ



What I know so far is that its DVB only, and HD output limited to HDMI
only
inline with all the approved freeview boxes.



On demand content will be over the net which is the holdup at the moment
with ISPs wanting stupid amounts to zero rate the traffic back to the
servers with the content.



Not aware of anyone getting their beta test units yet but it will be on
geekzone.co.nz when they do
