Anyone has any info on Tivo 3? Features, specs, release date?

Question

I already know about the promotion Tivo is offering but I have better things to do than watch stupid, silly American Idol!

Answer 1

TiVo just announced their TiVo Series 3 HD Digital Media Recorder, with dual HD recording and 300 hours of recording space. The device supports dual CableCARDs, of the 2.0 or 1.0 a variety, so either way you can get dual signals, with one 2.0 card or two 1.0 cards. Of course you can still rock the analog cable, but you'll have more fun with digital cable or ATSC over the air. You can even go for some straight up NTSC over the air and relive your snow-filled childhood memories. They're also launching an external SATA drive to hold all this HD video you're going to be PVRing now through oh-so-many sources. The new box looks good, the new remote is backlit, those snazz download capabilities are still in force, and the good times should roll this year, so all is well in TiVo fandom.

Answer 2

The only official release date is "2006".



There is some speculation based on the American Idol contest that the player will be available September-October 2006.



I've tried pumping people I know at TiVo to hint to me when to expect the player. They will not even give a hint and just comment the speculation on the net is simply speculation.
