GizmoLovers.com is hosting a contest for a TiVo HD! If you want to be entered into the contest you better hurry because the giveaway ends at midnight on April 18th. Additional rules and information can be found on GizmoLovers.com….

I finally got around to setting up my brand new TiVo HD which I received via the rewards program. I currently have it connected to a standard def TV however, I plan on getting an HDTV for the back room sometime in the near future. Here’s some pictures that I took during the unboxing process…

Earlier today, TiVo went ahead and published a priority page for the 9.3 software release. If you own a Series 2 TiVo, you might want to head on over to the page and sign up. This release is supposed to speed up the TiVo interface including a 5-10 second improvement during the season pass creation process.

This priority list is for TiVo Series2 Digital Video Recorders only!
DIRECTV DVRs with TiVo and TiVo Series1 DVRs are not eligible for this update. If you have a Series3 or TiVo HD DVR, they will receive the Spring update automatically in the near future.

Only DVRs with TiVo Service Numbers beginning with the following numbers are eligible for this software:
110, 130, 140, 230, 240, 264, 275, 540, 542, 565, 590, 595, and 649.

TiVo.com has extended their $199.99 TiVo HD deal which I previously blogged about back in Feburary. The deal was supposed to have expired yesterday however, due to its popularity TiVo has decided to extend the offer until July 2nd!

This is definitely a good offer if you are in the market for a TiVo HD. Amazon currently has the same DVR listed for $227.28.

For a limited time (6/16/08), TiVo.com is offering a TiVo HD complete with a wireless adapter, lifetime subscription and a TiVo plush doll all for only $698.99.

Does your glo remote go through a lot of batteries? It seems like every couple of months I am having to replace the batteries in my glo remote. Just yesterday, I had to replace the batters because my TiVo wouldn’t respond at all to the remote. Am I the only one who has noticed this issue or are you experiencing the same problem? The next time I have to replace batteries I’ll come back to this post and update it so that I know how long the batteries actually last.

As a side note, I would like to thank Ryan & Simon for putting me down as their TiVo rewards referrer. If you’d like to put me down as your referrer, all you need to do is enter my email address (raianoat AT gmail DOT com) when you activate your TiVo. Thanks Ryan & Simon!

All factory renewed TiVos come with a regular product warranty and a 30 day money back guarantee.
