I started writing TiVo and ReplayTV in 2000, asking them to supply service to Canadians. I have owned, during the time I lived in the United States, 3 ReplayTV boxes. Both TiVo and Replay are hands down better than anything offered by Rogers or Bell... but you know what? I've already spent potloads of money buying the Bell unit. And, I'm about to upgrade to the next generation Bell unit for HD. Sorry, TiVo. Missed opportunity. Too little, too late.

So, the new price become US $500. Plus, the $299 deal is described as "product lifetime", which is a little unclear. Is that until the box dies? Until TiVo stops supporting it? DB.
