TiVo Boxes Free For Limited Time Offer During Holiday Shopping Season
TiVo (Nasdaq: TIVO), the creator and a leader in television services for digital video recorders (DVR’s), is offering consumers an unprecedented opportunity to get for their own homes or give as a gift to friends and family the most popular TiVo box absolutely free this holiday season. When they sign up for a new service plan, consumers will receive the TiVo Series2 which retails for $219.99 and which has the capacity to store up to 80 hours of their favorite TV programming, free after rebate. This versatile TiVo box empowers consumers to enjoy their favorite TV programs whenever they want, and works with all cable, satellite, antenna, and combination set-ups. This is a limited time offer, while supplies last.
TiVo is really pushing this holiday season with press releases, price cuts, and advertising from both themselves and partners like RadioShack and Target. It looks like they’re making a real effort to build their subscriber base over this holiday season.

PTVupgrade rebrands and relaunches as DVRupgrade
Today PTVupgrade officially rebranded and relaunched as DVRupgrade. The fifth generation website provides a more efficient and easier to navigate user interface as well as integrated tools such as a knowledgebase and help desk as well as integrating the download site for software product downloads. From DVR Playground
PTVupgrade/DVRupgrade is one of the two major TiVo upgrade vendors, the other being WeaKnees. I’ve personally used DVRupgrade’s InstantCake CD to resurrect a TiVo I’d previously upgraded after the drive got corrupted. I’ve recommended InstantCake many times over the past few years to anyone looking for the easiest way to ‘Do It Yourself’ when upgrading a TiVo.
They’ve redesigned the site with a new look and feel, giving it a much cleaner, more modern look than the old site. Same people and products, and they’ve been a vendor to the TiVo community for 6 years.

RadioShack advertises TiVo in TV spots
Dave Zatz posted the video in ZatzNotFunny. As he mentioned, I’m a little surprised that they didn’t say anything about the ‘Free TiVo’ requiring service activation – except in the fine print across the bottom of the screen:Offer good 11/1/06 through 12/31/06 after $220 TiVo mail-in rebate. Minimum 1 year subscription service required.
