I did a search and it came up blank. Is anyone here using their S3 with the USDTV service? Does anyone know if Tivo is working with USDTV to put their decryption technology into the S3? Yes, I know both of these are long-shots.

Thanks in advance.

It is a way long shot, being that USDTV has a rather small penetration, is of inderterminate liquidity, and has not been obligated to open their system. Heck, even the other Standalone TiVos don't support the service.

I suppose, in theory, the Tivo hardware likely could support some sort of security module compatible with the Cablecard interface, if the TiVo software were re-written to support security card over the OTA through the CC slots, or a USB smartcard reader and soft security.
