TiVo TCD648250B Series3 HD Digital Media Recorder (2008 Model)
No Satellite!
It is absurd to spend $800 on a HD DVR that does not (and will never) work with satellite.  HR10-250s (the old HD TiVos that work with satellite and antenna, but not cable) are now selling for about $300, as are the newer (non-TiVo) replacement DVR's made by DirecTV.  Do not buy this TiVo Series 3 and think it will ever work with satellite.    All reception is much better on DirecTV than on cable - and buying this unit makes you \\"stuck\\" with cable for HD (and an outrageous service fee charged by TiVo) as long as you own this TiVo.  I have 3 Series 2 TiVo's with lifetime subscriptions (no longer offered by TiVo) that I could transfer to a new Series 3 (for a fee), but still chose against this unit.  It simply does not make any sense - technically or financially.    (Note as well that I think some standard features of the old Series 2 TiVo's do not work with the Series 3 (or the HR10-250) - like transferring programs from one TiVo to another (multi-room viewing).  Again, for $800 + a monthly fee one would think the features would include additions, not subtractions.)
