Link (http://www.dbstalk.com//showthread.php?t=22184) to the news I posted in the proper forum, but figure it is worth of discussion here.
News Release Excerpt:
How "TiVoToGo" Works
Accessing "TiVoToGo" requires a TiVo Content Security Key and TiVo-enabled versions of the Sonic Solutions (Nasdaq: SNIC - News) MyDVD® and CinePlayer(TM) applications.
Sonic Solutions, the leader in DVD creation software, has teamed with TiVo to develop TiVo-enabled versions of Sonic's MyDVD and CinePlayer applications. Once this software is installed on the PC, the new TiVo-enabled MyDVD and CinePlayer software from Sonic will make it easy to find the "Now Playing" programs on any networked TiVo DVR in the home.
The Future of "TiVoToGo"
These new mobile services are just the beginning. TiVo expects that other software and hardware makers will develop additional capabilities in the future designed to work with "TiVoToGo."
BravoBrava! is a technology company that has already developed mobile services that will allow remote programming of the TiVo Series2 DVR from cell phones and demonstrated these new capabilities at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). "TiVoToGo" scheduling from your cell phone or PDA extends remote scheduling beyond the PC keyboard, giving subscribers the ability to schedule recordings while on the go. Just heard about a new episode of the latest reality show? Just grab your cell phone and tell your TiVo Series2 DVR to record it for you
If these features work on an HD DVR with DirecTV, I think it may be time for me to finally switch to DirecTV.
