Question Moving, no phone line

I'm moving in two weeks and wont have a land phone line. I'm wondering what my options are. I'm sure the answer is somewhere in this place, but i havent found a definate answer yet and I dont want to buy something that doesnt work. If my tivo is going to be right next to my modem, can I connect it to an ether net cable using the linksys ethernet adapter listed on the tivo gear website? I know this sounds like a stupid question, but I feel like it's too easy of a solution because theres the wireless adapter advertised all over the place with "all of the cool features" you can get. I just want to make sure!

Yes, you can simply connect to your home network with an ethernet to USB adapter. The Linksys will work fine, or any of the adapters listed on the TiVo website.
