TiVo Series 3 arrives with HD, really steep price

Steve Safran September 12th, 2006

You can finally get an HD TiVo. The long-awaited TiVo Series 3 HD is out, and it will hold 32 hours of HD programming or 300 hours of standard programming. You can record two digital cable shows at once. All nice features. BUT… the box costs $800, and there’s still the matter of the $155 a year subscription fee. Zowee.

    and still no series 3 DirecTIVO HD.
    They are shooting themselves in the foot over this delay.
    Some of my friends who upgrade to HDTV plasma sets are just dumping DirecTV and going with Comcast (yuk).

    just so you know, it only costs $72 per year ($5.99 month)
    for TIVO with DirecTV.

    And TiVo is offering a deal to longtime subscribers to transfer their Lifetime Service to an HDTivo Series 3 for $199. As lifetime service is no longer offered, that’s a pretty good deal.

    Wow, thanks for the excellent information!
