Flaws: No easy way to search for rental videos only from the TiVo (have to leave Unbox on TiVo and go to Universal Swivel Search, then figure out if something is a rental or a purchase). Very limited selection through the Unbox menu on TiVo. Thumbs up: The fact it works at all. I have dumped NetFlix, but hope Amazon quickly gets the inventory of current flicks that will make it worthwhile.
