Speak for yourself, Jim.

I, for one, would prefer to research and purchase my own STB or TiVo (if they were permitted to support CableCard) rather than put up with my crappy Comcast Motorola STB that doesn't even have HDMI output.

You can buy a Tivo HD right now that supports Cablecard (unless you are in Canada).

And I am not talking HD enthusiasts (and posting here makes you one) I am talking just the guy with his Vizio who just wants to watch TV and record stuff with a DVR.

TiVo Series 3 and HD will also support tru2way (SDV and VOD) with their upcoming tuning adapter. It will be the best of both worlds: Great software, combined with cable interactivity. Not that I really care about the interactivity, UNLESS my local Cox provider goes to SDV eventually.
