Actually on the news I saw a story that a lot of stores are having sales on everything as incentive to get people to buy things; you know, credit crunch, etc. Something like the Christmas sales starting a month early. I just don't remember if the story said which country this was happening in. Regardless, it's probably worth keeping an eye out for any discounts.

How much hard drive space do TiVo's have, anyway? Sounds like you're keeping a lot on that thing.
