When will I be able to add the new Tivo Services for my series 2 Tivo?
I'm talking about Yahoo Weather, adding Podcasts and such?
It's posted on line and I've seen that it is suppose to be coming but if it's available, I am unaware of how to add this. Also, if it is not available, when will it be available?

Okay, done. So what's the waiting period like for this to work?

That's a good question. I would love to know how they pick who gets things and when. I'm asking because it only took me a few days to get the Yahoo! and other stuff and I've been a TiVo user only for maybe a month.

Thanks, I have it now but it won't take my yahoo account information. Says I'm entering an invalid account or password. I'm not.

I'm having the same problem.
First I thought it was my firewall.
I placed it on the DMZ and still nothing.
I notice the error message comes up very fast. Too fast to have even gone out to yahoo then back again.
I have buddy that works at Yahoo and he checked both of my id's. Nothing wrong with them.
Anyone notice this also?

It happened to me after I first set it up on TiVo, but within 5 days it had been resolved.

Not sure if anybody else hit this slight problem. Using FireFox, the field to enter the TiVo service number would only accept 14 digits. Not sure why.
Switched to Internet Explorer for that page and I was able to enter the full service number just fine.
Thanks for the link!

That's weird. I seem to remember that I used Firefox when I signed up for it. You didn't include other characters like hyphens (-), did you?

I've had the same problem with it not accepting my (very valid) Yahoo! Account information. ANything from TIVO about this?
