DVR Remote: Yet Another iPhone TiVo Remote

Update 02/06 @ 6:01 AM: An update (version 1.1) is now available which is supposed to fix the Now Playing list bug. For some reason I can’t get this feature to work with any of my DVRs (Series 3  & TiVo HD).  Let me know if you have this update and whether or not you [...]
