Just FYI though, if the Tivo Service Number is important to hide, it'd probably be better to just black it out completely because I can still read it (zip looks like 33602 and last 4 TSN looks like 4DE5... could be wrong about that but the rest is clearly readable).<br><br>Anyway, bang up job like anyways, however since I rarely have enough time to watch tv w/ college (except Adult Swim, I make time for that damnit) I am going to keep my Comcast/Motorola HD PVRs and hope the rumour of TiVo software coming my way at some time a reality.<br><br>- Tony R.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tony Rayo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2007 3:22AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
