Re: [ukha_d] Tivo for £199 inc VAT and Next Day Delivery



Darren and I got one each at the weekend.  He really went out of his way to
get me it, delivered to my work and everything.  Then HIS ONE didn't work
(it was a USED one) while mine is brand new.  I felt bad :(

We got them in Currys.  £229 but they gave us 10% off.  Dunno if it was
because we bought two or because it was a new store just opened.  Worked
out
at £206

Anyway.  Don't buy one..they're crap.  Stick with a PC and showshifter!!

OK...I Lied...IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!! (Ken will be along any moment to gloat
now).

Been using it for about a day now.  First impressions are excellent.  Bit
of
a bummer having to wait 4 bloody hours for the thing to
set itself up though! Anyway...I went out for the afternoon :)  But it _IS_
incredible.

Recorded a pay-per-view movie on it last night.  Watched about half before
Mrs fell asleep.  Can finish it tonight.  Niiice.  Did the forced update
thing last night around midnight (Darren showed me how) and I woke up this
morning to the new software 2.5.5  Oh...and it had recorded a suggestion
already!  I have "Sex and the City" setup as a season pass on
CH4.  It had
seen an old episode on the Paramount channel and grabbed it!  I love this
thing already :)
