I went out to watch the Super Bowl at a local bar (Congrats to Peyton!). Since I missed watching it with Tivo, I was wondering: Did Tivo offer any interactive content or any special features for the big event? Did any of the advertisers change their commercials to use Tivo features?

not that I recalled. The ads were all pretty straightforward in their approach. Humor that might appeal top afootball fan or just a straight message for many millions of eyeballs.


TiVo had a yellow star about delivering the ads on super Monday so either it will be a showcase of the ads again or it will be something during "super monday" comedy lineup

TVSquad (PVRWire) is reporting (http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/02/05/tivos-top-10-super-bowl-commercials/) that TiVo will allow users to download the commercials.

Thanks for the update guys! I like to watch how the big advertisers use (or do not use) Tivo. I guess I'll keep waiting for that day when the mainstream advertising agencies accept Tivo as a legitimate form of advertising.

Actually, it's a comment that we should get connected, even if we already are. That should not be a gold star - that should be a black mark for TiVo.
