Hi, my name is RiK and I've been using TiVo for almost 7 years now.....



Yep - I liked them so much that I even went and worked for them for two years back in 1999 when they first came out and cost $699 for a 14 hour unit (They gave them to us techs + some of us got lifetime service and beta status )

I now have..

- Dish Network DVR510 100hr
- Series 2 TiVo TCD24004A 40hr with 7.1b Software (Home Media Option and TiVo2Go)
- Series 1 - Philips HDR110 14hr (not being used)
- Series 1 - Philips HDR212 20hr (not being used)

SO, I'm wondering how many folks here have a TiVo or any PVR type device?

I got my Replay 2 years ago in 03. I use it to find any star wars programs that show up on tv.

PVRs are Cool IMO. hook one up to a DVD Recorder and your Set.

Rikter, you should sell those TiVo series 1 sets on eBay. People that don't want to subscription service buy up the series 1.

I personally have a Toshiba RD-XS32. Combination DVD burner and 80GB hard drive.

I've used it to transfer my Packers/Browns video to DVD (the game I went to in Dec. 2001). Right now, I'm working on a Star Wars compilation. I've got Star Wars to Jedi, Star Wars to Star Wars and Nova: The Magic of Special Effects burned to disk. My second disk is going to include Exposure: Star Wars Edition and the soon to be played Lego Star Wars program that is going to appear on Cartoon Network next month.

once I've transferred stuff off my VHS tapes, I'm removing my VCR completely.

VCR - what's that?

I was thinking about getting a stand-alone DVD recorder but they did the tivo2go so now I really don't need one BUT have you been very pleased with the results that you get from that Toshi?

As for selling my TiVo's maybe the 20hr after I get a HD to upgrade it MAYBE a nic card then I'll sell it + I wonder how much I'd get if I hacked my 14hr with lifetime and dropped it on eBay?)
