Come on now. What are you paying your writers and editors?]]>Sep 27th 2006 1:22PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 27th 2006 1:49PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/I am comparing it to a few older tuners (HR10-250) as well as newer PCI tuners like the Avermedia A180 and the EyeTV Hybrid. I was not able to compare it to my H20, since I no longer have it.]]>Sep 27th 2006 1:51PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 27th 2006 2:27PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/
Save your breath. Although Ben isn’t as bad as Matt on the spelling and grammar front (Matt, you’re still using “then” instead of “than”… we’ve been through this…), what can we expect from guys who watch HDTV all day ;)]]>Sep 27th 2006 3:33PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 27th 2006 6:55PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 27th 2006 9:42PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/The guide data is much better than the Cable Companies. For one it goes 14 days in advanced and has more data which helps to prevent dups and re-runs.]]>Sep 27th 2006 10:01PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 28th 2006 9:07AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/
To tell you the truth, I found the Comcast/Motorola HDPVR to be so good I probably wouldnt have bought my Series 3 - I mean the series 3 is $1080 + $3/mo for cablecards including my TiVo subscription conversion and tax, the Comcast DVR was like $12/mo - not as good as the series 3, but far better then the series 2 because of dual hd tuners, and a far better *value* then the series 3 for sure.

However, the Cablevision/SA HDPVR is *just plain awful* and had to go.]]>Sep 28th 2006 9:48AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/
My only gripes thus far... the Yahoo! apps don't work and I can't save my fav podcast (Slate and the like... have to be hand entered)

I had a series 2 and now a series 3 in between I also had a SA 8000HD & SA 8300HD (for my HD display). I found the 8000HD much slower than than the Tivo (tv listing guide) and 8300HD is much faster than the Series 3...]]>Sep 28th 2006 11:51AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 28th 2006 3:53PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 28th 2006 4:16PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 28th 2006 4:02PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/
cckrobinson - I've compiled a S3 FAQ: http://www.tivolovers.com/Series3-FAQ.html]]>Sep 28th 2006 10:25PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/Sep 30th 2006 2:20PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/09/27/review-series3-tivo/I was comparing it to the 6.3a update. I also have about 30 Season passes and the Series3 is still much faster than the HR10-250 with only 10 Season passes. 6.3 is much faster than 3.5 on on the HR10-250, but still not as fast as the Series3.

Overall responsiveness is better from entering channel numbers to navigating the guide and TiVo menus. ]]>Sep 30th 2006 3:27PM
