What does everyone think the chances are of the S3 backlit remote working the S2 and the S3 remote being available for purchase?

I'd say chances are pretty good it does work on S2's. It won't be cheap though.

I can confirm that the remote DOES work on a Series2. We are using our new S3 remote to control both of our Tivo Units, the S2 and S3.
I'm also interested in purchasing an S3 remote. Inquired in the S3 forum about this here (http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?t=316720).

If Tivo does make it available, I wouldn't expect to see it offered at less than $79 - $99
The Series3 remote is a relatively high-end remote.

I think Tivo will let you trade in your old Series1 or Series2 remote and upgrade to the Series 3 remote for only $199.99 (limited time offer) :)

The S3 replacement remote will be on sale in the TiVo Store sure enough.

They actually let you keep the old remote. Free for a year, then it's only $9.95/month.

I hope so! I would love to have a backlit TiVo remote!
