Beyond easy drive replacement, it’s come to light that the TiVo Roamio and updated Minis are capable of displaying arbitrary web pages and streaming H.264 video. I suppose it’s really no surprise given the Roamio’s Chomecast-esque DIAL capabilities and upcoming HTML5 Opera app platform.

So, if you execute that command, do you get a Zatz live-cam? And if so, can we control your actions via some DIAL-like scheme?
