Was talking to a Firedog techie today and he said he had heard Tivo was going out of buisiness, and would be no longer by 2010. Anybody else hear this?
Thanks.

The way that Circus City is going lately, they're more likely to be out of business by 2010 than TiVo is. What nonsense...

 

[jtlytle]

Hogwash!

Sure; it's all over the news.

 

[windracer]

Wow, usually those Firedog techies are so reliable.

 

[ZeoTiVo]

Gosh, the BEst Buy Geek Squad guy said that TiVo was buying Microsoft.

Which one is right

 

[SullyND]

Was his name Chuck?

 

[MickeS]

What was special about the year 2010 in this scenario?

 

[ZeoTiVo]

Was his name Chuck?

Chuck knows why 2010 is significant but he is not saying yet

 

[SullyND]

Actually Chuck would probably know for sure

That's what I was afraid of



ETA: oooh Caught him in an edit

It was the year he makes contact.... with a female.

 

[davecramer74]

id imagine tivo will be bought by 2010, but not out of business.

If you happen to have the name and contact info for that Firedog techie, please do forward it to me. I'd be happy to correct his information personally.

Thanks,

Get em Pony!!

Maybe the firedog techie heard that the stores were no longer going to carry Tivos and from that, assumed that Tivo was going out of business.

Maybe that why the stock went up 8% today, by 2010 you will not be able to get TiVo stock anymore and people want collect it now while they can.

 

[lloydkirk]

...Evidently he was wrong!

 

[Turtleboy]

It's so silly.

Companies announce that they are going out of business effective tomorrow. Maybe, effective Decmber 31.

But to say "We're going out of business in 3 years?"

Silly.

What was special about the year 2010 in this scenario?

HAL takes over.

Reel 'em in.
