TiVo TCD649080 Series 2 80-Hour Dual Tuner Digital Video Recorder (2008 Model)
Awesome
I had Dish Network for about a week before going back to cable and the only thing I loved was the DVR service. I toyed with the idea of buying a TiVo for a while and then I finally bit the bullet and did. Holy smokes! This is great. Easy to set up. I have mine connected with the coax in and S video out to my TV set. The TiVo service (if you own the box, like I do) is only $12.95 with a one year minimum. It's worth it. They give you the option to pay outright for 1,2, or 3 years in advance or do the month to month thing. I bought the wireless USB network card (no data drops in my bedroom) and even with a 19% signal strength to the wireless router in my basement on the other side of my house the channel lineup download only took about 10 minutes.
