Well crap!! And here I've been waiting for them to release the anythingelse product all this time. Looks like they are still off schedule for anythingelse.

The guy who posted about this on the Tivo stock board actually has been trying this link for a while, it only recently went from non-existent at all, to access denied. So there seems to be progress.

you and me both!

Hopefully Newton will get it before Newburyport

I have tried that url before and got the anythingelse page...now that it has changed that is progress...

Leo gets it!

What exactly does this prove? That a Tivo web page is coming?

We all know that Comcast/Tivo units are in the works, have known for awhile. Maybe, just maybe the web site is being changed to something like:

"Coming Soon, Comcast/Tivo units".

WOW!

Now this is interesting. I cannot wait until Comcast releases the anythingelse product

Clearly absolute proof that Tivo is coming soon to Comcast. Perhaps in 2008 even. Not sure why anyone with a Tivo already would care.

Maybe those of us who currently have S2 Tivos are weighing the choice of a TivoHD or a Comcast DVR with Tivo service. So, yes, people who already have Tivo DO care.

Bingo!

Same answer as above...because I have a non-HD DirecTivo.

I'm curious how this benefits any of us? If we're Tivo users we still don't get access to the On Demand stuff. If we switch to the Comcast box with Tivo we get On Demand but Tivo suffers from us not using their service.

Or will On Demand become available for those of us using Tivo boxes?

Drat! I was planning on heading out to buy a Tivo HD today so I called Comcast to set up a cablecard install appointment.

She mentioned something about Comcast "working something with Tivo," but it didn't really sink in and I have an appointment for next week for the cablecard install. Now I learn they actually might be a offering Comcast Tivo box down the line!?

Now I'm torn. Should I shell out the 300 beans to get this THD box now or wait a while to see if Comcast offers a Tivo-powered box as part of their package? If I knew for sure the Comcast/Tivo box was at least 2 years away, I'd splurge for the THD now, but any sooner and I'd have to seriously think about this.

(Let me add that I loathe the Motorola 6412 that I'm using right now hehe)
