TiVo TCD649080 Series 2 80-Hour Dual Tuner Digital Video Recorder (2008 Model)
Better Than Ever!
I just replaced my year and a half old Tivo series II single tuner model with this new dual tuner model.  No more conficts between my Season's Passes this year...<br /><br />Guided setup can now be done via network adapter instead of the previous mandatory dial up via phone line.  Initial setup is A LOT faster because of this.<br /><br />The menu movement and channel changing is snappier, which is nice.<br /><br />Network transfer speed using the Tivo Wireless Adapter is almost 2X as fast as my single tuner model.<br /><br />I had to upgrade Tivo Desktop from 2.2 to 2.3 because transferred recordings had no sound on my PC.  The upgrade fixed it.<br /><br />Recording two shows at the same time is easy and works great!  What I like even better is when you are recording a scheduled show, you have the ability to channel surf on the Tivo without that annoying message \\"Are you sure you want to change channels, or leave it here and keep recording\\" coming up.<br /><br />The remote is exactly the same.  The back of the Tivo is the same except for the addition of an ethernet port, which I have not tried to use since I use wireless.<br /><br />I highly recommend this Tivo for new customers, and as a replacement for Tivo veterans.
