Tivo 3.0 'Firebolt' Hits the Wild

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the good-luck-the-first-round dept.

James Evans writes "Tivo is rolling out version 3.0 of their software, including Ethernet drivers as well as the ability to download program data directly from a cable broadcast without using the phone line." My guess is it'll be awhile before everyone gets it since these things come in waves.

    (hey that rhymes :)
    I'm disapointed that the haven't chosen this release to announce any sort of partnership w/ a company to get TiVo in Canada. I think they could really be sitting on a good market here. We like TV just as much as any American, and historically we've been quicker to adopt new technologies too. It's a real shame too, as the only thing that comes close is a PVR offered by Bell as part of their ExpressView satellite service (which, of course, requires the satellite service) and is a poor comparison to TiVo
