Now you can record your favorite shows in HD and not break the bank.

Now that I've got the gaming out of my system, or at least I have it under control (or so I think), I can get back to bringing you the latest and coolest tech and information again.

We have all become accustomed to and expect to have the ability of recording our favorite TV shows nowadays. TiVo was the company that broke ground and first gave us the DVR (digital video recorder) capability. Most of us were waiting for TiVo to make their HD version. Well they finally came out with their Series 3 HD TiVo box for the low low price of $800!
Great that the capability with TiVo's well kown ease of use and plug and play is here but nobody can afford it. Seeing that most cable companies and other are now offering DVR, TiVo has seen the writing on the wall: make an affordable HD DVR or die.

Is that to dramatic a statement? Not at all, TiVo just reported a Q4 net loss of $18.7 million. TiVo CEO Tom Rogers said "We will be highly focused this year on launching a lower-priced, mass appeal High Definition product.” You don't say!!

With AppleTV here (review to come shortly) and all the other recorders out there TiVo better give us an affordable HD DVR or the only place you'll see TiVo products is on eBay!!
