You could've done what me and a buddy did. We each got a TiVo HD and replaced the harddrive. With the software from mfslive its a snap. Now my HD has a 500gb (64 hours of HD recording) and my buddy has a 640 (70 hours of HD). I spent less than $300 total (including shipping). For the cost of a S3 you could get a HD a 1tb to put inside and a 1tb external to pair with it.
DavidB you can only officially use the TiVo HD with the MyDVR Expander eSata. Which at $150 (cheapest I've seen) is a total rip for 500gb of storage. But with that software I mentioned you can pair any eSata drive with the internal drive (from what I've read anyway, I haven't done it myself).
