TiVo and Rendezvous

Posted by pudge on Thursday January 9, 2003 @04:03AM from the gimme-gimme-some-lovin dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Just found this press release on the Apple web site. Time to upgrade the TiVo?" Looks way excellent. Right now I have an old iBook sitting on top of the TV, and it streams MP3s via AirPort from the server. But it would be so much better to just listen to the MP3s through the TiVo instead ... and have access to my iPhoto albums too? Sweet. But I would still want it to be wireless: Josuah writes "Alex King has set up his TiVo 2 to download its meta information over his 802.11b network, instead of the landline. He's got step-by-step instructions up." I'd probably want to use 802.11g though ... lots of data, this is.

I am vexed by your implication. In your suggestion that I learn more, you either mean that there are people who don't need to learn more -- and surely no such person exists -- or that my speech above is evidence that I am especially lacking in learning. There's no evidence for either suggestion. Thornton Wilder said, "Many great writers have been extraordinarily awkward in daily exchange, but the greatest give the impression that their style was nursed by the closest attention to colloquial speech." If my speech was, as you suggest, a propos to the topic of television, then perhaps I've done my job properly.
