PIoneer DVR-810H makes PopSci BOWN.

This is one of the Pioneer TiVo/DVR-RW units – the other is the Pioneer Elite DVR-57H. While MSRP on this is $1200, I’ve seen then for ~$700 online, and I expect prices to come down. They’re really cool units.

Another Star Trek Enterprise Change
Creating this as a new thread, so that it might catch the eye of those
interested in Enterprise…

If you’ve been reading the threads, you know there are some strange things
going on with the data we receive on this program.

And it gets a new twist. Read on…

Remember that UPN initially said they wouldn’t change the series name. And
then they did.

And then Tribune said they wouldn’t edit the name of the show in their
current record, but had to create a new series id…resulting in everyone
creating new season passes.

And then they did decide to edit the original entry afterall. We just got
the word late today.

Tribune has decided to remove the new series id, and rename the original
series id with the ‘Star Trek’ prefix.

That means that you’ll have to delete and re-enter your Season Pass for Star
Trek: Enterprise one more time when the new data arrives.

Trust me, we’re not satisfied with this. But the data has already been
changed, and will be out to your systems in the next day or two.

We’ve looked at other ways to fix this on our end, and there isn’t anything
we can do about it at the moment.

We appreciate your patience, but understand the frustration with the series
name and data changing back and forth.

For anyone who has a TiVo and records Enterprise, note that Paramount changed the name to Star Trek: Enterprise *and* the series was given a new indentifier. That means it breaks TiVo Season Passes. You need to create a new SP for the new name.
