This sounds like the setup Kurt Vonnegut had in Player Piano. Most bars had robots in them, but those were always empty, because no one wanted to talk to a robot about their problems.
1) This seems unclear, however, with the version 2.x software you can record any specific show when it comes on, you just have to setup a title keyword.
2) You can record by keyword in software version 2.x (any recorder should be upgraded over the phone).
3) I believe this is another problem that was fixed in version 2.x
Would you all still be complaining if, instead of paying excite for faster service, these companies simply bought more/faster servers and faster internet connections? These companies are paying for speed to the end user, the same way they would pay for speed by purchasing extra equipment and bandwidth. What if Excite simply offered colocation services? Is there a difference if a company has its entire site cached for faster access (as would be the case for colocation), or just certain content that it bandwidth intensive. -Tom Hennen
I have to say that I love my current split keyboard. It is a Mouse Systems keyboard, that only cost me $20. The keys make a resonable amount of noise, and as an added benefit, there is a backspace and tab key in the middle of the keypad. They are flush with the board itself so it is difficult to accidentally hit them. Definatly the best keyboard I have ever used. Tom

But you can get a lifetime subscription for Tivo also, it's something like $199, about the difference in price between Tivo and Replay.

The Moller Skycar gets at least 20 mpg, depending on the type. Some versions get 40 mpg.
