Almost too little, too late.
I think that that the series 3 will be a success, and it might even help tivo grow a bit, but this is almost two years too late. They've missed out on two years of subscription fees from people like me, two years of product mindshare growth, and two years of mavens/evangelists like me telling everybody they need to buy Tivo. I don't think Tivo is dead or dying (quite yet) but they are getting very very close, and they need to release the Series 3 very soon - within a month or two.
And for those of you saying they needed to wait for the cablecard 2.0 spec to firm up, that's bunk. I would have bought a cablecard 1.0 version in a heartbeat, even knowing I'd probably have to replace it in a few years to get more functionality - all I care about is being able to tape shows with the Tivo format. I don't care about anything else that cablecard 2.0 gets me, and I'm willing to bet that a vast majority of Tivo's potential HD customers don't either.
