Dave’s Dilema: What to do with the Series3?

The time has come to make a decision… my options are to return or to purchase my Series3 review unit. I’ve really enjoyed using the S3 TiVo and it sure beats the Moto 6412, but it seems like a lot of cash. On the other hand, maybe TiVo, Inc should just leave it with me and write it off as a marketing expense. Hmmm. Help guide me by casting your vote below!

  • The TiVo Series 3 is a worth owning. After receiving my first one, I purchased a second for my office (37" Westinghouse LVM37W3 monitor). I am planning to purchase a third (second generation) series 3 for my living room.

  • Oh come on now. How many times are you going to get a review unit handed to you? Why bite the hand that threw you a scrap by holding it hostage, who knows when there will be something else worth them tossing over to you? Why buy it? Well, if you decide to plunk down the coin later, wouldn't you rather have a review unit for posterity? I think you should A) Buy it, and B) Convince TiVo to throw you a bone and lifetime it.
