How long can we last? We don’t know. The Series 3 Tivo is out, and I’m leaving it for the early adopters for the time being. Why?
To put it bluntly, I’m cheap.
It took a large leap for us to justify making the previous home theater purchases, but the only big purchase was the TV, which we all love. None of the other components went beyond $250, and most were well below that. I don’t want to pay $800 + monthly fees for a new DVR unless it can do a whole heck of a lot more. The new Tivo has lots of great features, for which not a day goes by without my longing for each one of them. I want to have a DVR that responds quickly to commands. I want to have more space to store HD recordings longer than 4 days. I want to be able to set up recordings from my PC, so I don’t have to interrupt the show being watched. I want! I Want!
But, not so much that I would spend that kind of money on it. I guess we’ll be waiting a little longer for more HD trickle-down.
When I get over my current case of “poutrage”, I’ll post a few handy links I’ve found for HD and home theater information.
