Okay, so I'm not as disappointed now. I like the idea of the 10 unit network. (They should try something like that with music, too.) So, I guess it's a bit of a "wait and see" holding pattern right now for us end users, eh? I had forgotten about that! Okay, so I’m not as disappointed now. I like the idea of the 10 unit network.

Remember, TiVo got FCC approval for TTG for that - sharing between units on the net. The proposal is to allow you to setup a network of 10 units, for limited sharing - to avoid the legal problems of open sharing with anyone. So a small 'friends and family' network. If they don't announce something at CES before I get the chance, I plan to ask them about that. Well, that should be coming too.

What I was hoping for was a way my friends could send me shows and movies that I didn't record on my own, not a way I could take shows I've already recorded with me when I go places. But, I'm sure I'll see the light eventually. Good point..

Now I have an iPod and I don't know why everyone doesn't own one. :-) I don’t know that I’d like a dedicated PMP – but then, I didn’t really see the need for a dedicated digital music player either.

I hope it has a market, because a lot of companies seem to be really excited about it, but I haven't yet met a DVR user who would want one.

They're also working with Apple for the Mac users. But there are a growing number of Windows Powered Portable Media Players. TiVo wants you to be able to transfer shows from your TiVo to your PC, and then from there to your PMP, Smart Phone, etc. So they're working with MS to make it easy.The fact that Bill Gates included TiVo in his CES keynote is a *BIG DEAL*, that's a significant coup for TiVo since his keynote is the biggest event of the show.
