Ok, so I'm new to the scene and haven't checked all the past posts, but if SonicBlue is going under, why not just open the source for ReplayTV. Someone could easily adapt it to obtain the program schedule from the cable broadcast, just as my television and cable box do. Has this been done? Does anyone know of a hack for ReplayTV? I mean, I coughed up $350 for an 80-hour box, and $250 for a "lifetime" (apparently a fruit-fly's lifetime, not mine) membership fee. I am going to be ticked off if my ReplayTV turns into a paperweight!
