I've got a TiVo.  At the moment, though, its out of program data because I
haven't had the chance to reinstall the PPP-over-serial hack that got
wiped out when the Version 3 software came out.

It also is...less than reliable automagically changing channels on my DSS
system.  There's a serial port that's designed to let the TiVo control DSS
systems directly, but that's being taken up by the PPP link.

Once I get some money, I'll buy a TivoNet adapter and put the freakin
thing on ethernet.
