In stock and shipping today at $89.99, the new TiVo Slide Remote contains a full QWERTY keyboard. This means you can enter long search terms faster and more easily. We’ve been asking for this for a while and we’re excited that it’s here!

The remote is like a shorter, fatter version of the standard TiVo peanut. It’s even shorter than the original Series1 remotes – yet it contains all of the buttons of the newest remotes – and, of course, more.

Slide open the top like a cell phone to reveal the full keyboard, and type away!

More great features of the TiVo Slide Remote:

• Backlit, like the TiVo Glo remotes
• Learning, so it can work with many more TVs and receivers
• Uses BlueTooth – no line of sight needed!

The TiVo Slide remote works with any TiVo Series3 or TiVo Series4 DVR including the TiVo HD and TiVo Premiere lines. This remote will NOT work with Series2 or earlier DVRs, or with DirecTV TiVos.

The TiVo HD XL is the last and the greatest of the Series3 TiVo DVRs. It has THX sound, a Glo remote with the 1-2 switch, and can accept two CableCARDs.

Since TiVo has stopped producing these units, we’ve got some special pricing deals on them, while supplies last.

The base unit is down from $499 to $349 and, if you get the special on our homepage before it’s gone, you can get the 2 Terabyte unit that holds over 300 hours of HD for $599!

TiVo is having a promotion where, with activation of a new TiVo Premiere or TiVo HD, get 3 months of service free.

TiVo has been touting the Wireless N adapter for their DVRs, and it’s now available. We’ll be shipping ours starting 4/30/10. You can preorder one here:

TiVo Wireless N Adapter

This adapter is fundamentally different from the TiVo Wireless G adapter (which will continue to be sold). Besides the extra speed (and extra $30 in cost), this unit acts more as an ethernet-wireless bridge. So it plugs into the ethernet port, rather than a USB port.

Using the ethernet port is different for a few reasons, but presumably TiVo designed the adapter this way to be able to get more throughput than they could over USB. But it also means the unit needs its own power outlet. Additionally, this change limits the compatible units for this device to any unit that has an ethernet port on-board – so the dual tuner TiVo (units with service numbers starting in 649) or any HD TiVo for cable (original Series3, TiVo HD and HD XL, and TiVo Premiere, and Premiere XL).

If you don’t currently have WiFi, or if you want N WiFi for your TiVo and you currently have a slower variety (B or G), you can get two of these units and configure them in bridge mode. This allows you to put one adapter on your TiVo and one directly on an unused ethernet port on your router and create an N wireless link.

Final note: this adapter will step down to B or G speeds if that’s the fastest protocol supported in your router.

As mentioned in an earlier post, we’ve been working hard on getting the new TiVo Premiere HD upgraded in a rock-solid configuration, and, after much more testing, we’re happy to say it’s a complete success! We even have a new maximum capacity available: 4 Terabytes – that’s enough storage for up to 640 hours of HD recording.

These units are now in stock and ready for sale – you can find them on our website here:

TiVo Premiere HD DVR – Stock and Upgraded

We’re able to upgrade both the TiVo Premiere and the TiVo Premiere XL to the same capacities, thanks to lots of new code inside these units. So you can get a 2 TB internal drive in either one, or you can get either with a 2 TB internal and a 2 TB external if you want it.

Here’s a screenshot from our new largest TiVo ever:

And, of course, we’ll have upgrade kits on the site and shipping soon also!
