I just saw the ad on my Tivo for is and it looks pretty cool. 500.00 dollars is a little too much but it's way closer than the previous models from Pioneer. Does anyone know what the remote looks like is it still the peanut. _________________________ Matt

According to PVRBlog who just asked someone at the TiiVo booth during the DigitaLife show in NYC this weekend (which i was also at). The other Humax units looks (exactly) like the Toshiba units. I haven't seen this one. Many models, regardless of what they look like on the outside, are identical on the inside (Hughes and Philips units, some Sony, etc..)

Bumping an old thread, but this board is extremely dead today. Circuit City's sales flyer says 80GB Tivo w/ DVD Recorder for $199 after rebate (look under the $99 SA Tivo). http://weeklyad.circuitcity.com/CircuitC...p;pagenumber=12 Instructions from another forum: According to today's in-store sales flyer at CircuitCity stores, they have a Tivo 80-hour digital video recorder with built-in DVD recorder for $300, and a $100 in-store mail-in rebate is available. This deal is available in-store only, and the product description can be seen online. It's located on page 12 of their sales flyer, just under the $99 Tivo advertised is where you will find the small ad for the Tivo/DVDR combo unit for $200 after rebate. The register will charge you the full price of $500, so you must show them the ad to get it for $300 (before rebate). The rebate requires you to activate your Tivo unit (and pay $13 serice monthly, or a one-time $300 service fee) to qualify for the $100 rebate. Read the rebate details carefully before committing yourself to this deal. _________________________ -Rob Riccardelli 80GB 16MB MK2 090000736
