Twisted Impulse

Hello all, I'm a long time lurker and tivocommunity addict. I have an upgraded Series2 Standalone 200gb. Recently I had my cable disconnected due to the high prices and low channel quality... even on digital there is a ton of static and the digital box frequently locked up if you quickly changed channels. My broadcast abc channel from the antenna rivals regular cable and digital cable quality here. Yes, before you ask I've had techs out here about 4 times and they refuse to come back, the sentiment being that this is part of a larger problem that cannot be fixed without serious investment from my apartment community and either I deal with it or cancel. I chose the latter.
Recently however I've gotten into the RSS/TVrip scene, in which hdtv quality shows are automatically downloaded, converted, and put into the tivo shows folder for upload. Unfortunately after a few weeks of this I have to scroll down the Now Playing for quite a bit to find a show... a lot of room is wasted by the name of the show because we can't group into folders so I usually have "My Name Is Earl - Broke J." for "Broke Joy's Fancy Figurine - EP15"
Does any one know if folders and extended pc2tivo show info is going to be added to the new Tivo2Go? I know engadget and other places have had the beta for months. Any idea when the new program is coming out? If it's obviously not going to be a feature in the near future I might as well cancel my service and use the 200gb for show storage on my pc. :confused:
Thanks for reading!
