Has anyone heard any new information on the series 3 release?

Release target date?

Holdups?

Roadblocks?

The only thing TiVo has said is that it will be released in the second half of this year. So far there are no reported holdups.

Tivo Series 3 gets thumbs up from CableLabs and 180-hr Series 2 box disappears (http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/04/tivo-series-3-gets-thumbs-up-from-cablelabs-and-180-hr-series-2/)

On Gizmodo they said maybe the removal of the enhanced series 2 was to put all focus on getting the series 3 out the door, this would be ideal IMHO. I would really love to get my hands on a series 3 ASAP!

I guess that didn't pan out since the S2 DT is out today. Crap. I hope that doesn't mean the S3 is not coming out sooner, rather than later, I was really hoping all of this 'passing cable labs cert' talk was improving the delivery date....

This new Tivo is Crap, It does not support cable card so It can Only record 1 Digital Channel at a time!!!! It can record Only 2 Analog (basic cable) or 1 analog + 1 digital at the same time! Cablevision in my area has gone all digital so this Tivo-DT is USELESS to me!! :down:

Bring on the Series 3 already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
