Retailers Leak New TiVo HD Specs and Price

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the tastes-great-less-filling dept.

Brent writes "Retailers goofed and posted most of the specs of the forthcoming TiVo Series 3 Lite, which Ars says may be called 'TiVo HD' at launch. A comparison with the standard Series 3 shows that for a savings of $300, you only lose the OLED screen (do you need a screen on your TiVo?), the glowing remote (which you can pickup for $50 anyway), THX certification (worthless) and 90GB of storage. Looks like it may be a TiVo hacker's dream."

    Let me help you out and parse it with bullet points: ... you only lose:
    *the OLED screen (do you need a screen on your TiVo?)
    *the glowing remote (which you can pick up for $50 anyway)
    *THX certification (worthless)
    *90GB of storage

    Now, why didn't 'you' parse the submission right?
