According to an "unofficial" post by a TiVo marketing rep there is much more to this than just mp3 and picture viewing.
My guess: Originally when series 2 was announced they mentioned that they would have some deal with Real. I am guessing that you will be getting some of the premium Real content with this.
I see thousands of uses for a tablet PC - virtual clipboards for loading dock workers, easy access to databases for doctors, ordering tablets for fast food workers, survey workers at the mall, the list goes on...
All of these uses would be better served with a cheaper more specialized device. It is insane to buy a full blown PC for doing a single task.
People with Brown eyes(on average) are less sensitive to flicker than people with blue or green eyes by about 5-10hz. (not sure about grey eyes).
Wow, I always wondered why so many people had their monitor refresh at 60Hz and didn't seem to notice. It is the first thing I change when I fix someones computer.
Yeah, you tell them it was already sent back (via a simple form on the website) and they list it as lost and send you the next movie. As long as this does not happen too often it is fine. Otherwise they may suspend your account.
It have only had 3 lost and 2 broken DVDs in the 2.5 years I have used the service.
Bah, anything kills UT2K3, that is a perfect example of rehashing a genre done to death. I played it for an hour at a LAN party and was bored out of my mind.
Serious Sam is not really innovative though, you just blow shit up. But it is tons of fun in co-op mode.
Battlefield 1942 is my current FPS obsession. fun game.
Really? I don't get charged extra for a router on AT&T, just gave them the MAC and they set it up, no questions asked. Also the installer didn't install anything on my system.
don't convert your CDs to mp3, just buy a 100+ CD changer, they can be chained together. Or use monkeys audio to get lossless compression.
Oh and I have a $1500 system with DVD-A and will gladly buy more if they would release them. The 5.1 is what gets me, my system isn't good enough to notice increased resolution.
I don't care so much about the increased resolution, my system is not that great to notice. But I will tell you, Bjork's Vespertine sounds WAY better on the DVD-A in 5.1 than on the CD in stereo.
Each Xbox bought also goes to the pool of "Xbox sold" which MS uses to market to game developers to code for the Xbox which creates more Xbox games which MS uses to market to the consumer to buy an Xbox.
We're closer to a President Schwarzennegar than a President Boucher.
Funny thing, there has been some rumblings about a write in campaign for Scwarzennegar for Governor of California. Given the two craptacular main party candidates we have running I would gladly vote for him.

You need to go to Yosemite in the spring. It is more crowded but the waterfalls are in full effect then. Awesome place.
Don't forget those really creepy slices of human cadavers in that one stairway (those still there?).
Chicago has a lot of GREAT museums. Also check out the natural history museum too. Great stuff.
Smaller and lower quality does not belong in the same sentence with the word audiophile. :)
Cool idea though.
40.72 are release drivers which are WHQL certified.
Seen all this info about 2 years ago in the US on Frontline.
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/harvest/
It is a TV show, so you do not get all the info from that page (there is still a lot there).
Well I hope they have component out, otherwise the whole HD thing is worthless.
No it goes like this:
DS9
Yeah, that is it. Everything else was kind of crappy.
this in no way offers competition to the MS-based tablets.
Look at the simple fact that I can actually afford to buy one of these and tell me again it offers no competition to the MS tablet.
Like comparing a Hyundai with a BMW. Sure, I would rather have a BMW, but I can actually afford a Hyundai.

Might be maggots.
Standalone TiVo encodes to mpeg. The satelite TiVo (like DirectTV model in US) records the sat bitstream directly. So it can do both.

I have been using my Linksys router for 8 months now to connect 2 computers on AT&T broadband in SoCal with no additional charges.
The installer and support person I gave the router's MAC to did not mention anything about it being against the AUP.
Beats me.

There are XFT builds of Mozilla 1.2b already, here.
rather than simply going 'Hey! Its a Balrog' she will some idea why running away is a really good course of action
It's a giant demon dripping fire from its skin looking really pissed off. You need a better reason than that to run away?

FYI: You can get most of the DVD-A releases from circuitcity.com for usually $1 less than amazon.

Please point out where in the constitution does it say that it applies to US citizens only?
It is called the Preamble.
