Sony SVR-2000 Digital Video Recorder
TiVo changes the way you watchTV.
Excellent product.  Once I swapped out the ~9 hour (30gb) drive with the ~36 hour (120gb) drive and stored entered all of my seasons passes, I can now watch what I want when I want.  I actually watch more TV in less time...no more commercials.<br />Now, if only I could stick it in a closet and share the experience with everyone, in every room on every TV... well, maybe next year.
