Cons: Until expandable storage option is supported, the TiVo HD is limited to 20 hours of HD video capacity; requires monthly fee in addition to cable bill; sluggish transitions between menu screens; does not work video-on-demand and switched digital video serv

TiVo HD
Comments:
Review Verdict: Combining the best of the legendary simple-to-use TiVo interface with dual CableCARD readers and an affordable price (finally!), the new TiVo HD delivers the promise that the TiVo Series 3 HD made.
Review Verdict: Combining the best of the legendary simple-to-use TiVo interface with dual CableCARD readers and an affordable price (finally!), the new TiVo HD delivers the promise that the TiVo Series 3 HD made.
QuickTake:
Pros: The best HD-capable TiVo ever. Dual HD tuners. Still easy to use. Online scheduling via Web site or cell phone.
Cons: Menu operation is a little slow at times. No TiVo to Go. No satellite support. Cable TV DVRs can be cheaper in the long run. Great for fans, may be too late for novices. Cell-phone scheduling is only on Verizon Wireless.

Comments:
Review Verdict: After all the hype and wait, the TiVo HD isn't the ground-breaking product it was touted as. It's got some nifty new features which we'd love to see widely accepted though and it's a worthwhile investment if you want a comprehensive electronic TV program

Review Verdict: The TiVo HD isn't without its problems, but it's a great way to get an HiDef DVR without having to rent one from your cable company in perpetuity and deal with the poor software their boxes come with

QuickTake:
Pros: It's a TiVo - the user experience is far and above the standard cable company DVR., Can upgrade the hard drive that comes with the unit., Future functionality possible with USB and Ethernet connectivity.,
Cons: CableCard and other fees can vary, and can negate any savings over a rented STB., Undersized hard drive., Unidirectional CableCard (no PPV, OnDemand, or some less-popular channels being delivered by SDV).,
