Longtime legacy Tivo user making the move to HR21 next week. I'm prepared for a few days (weeks?) of discomfort. So it goes, time to move on. Appreciate any advice on what to expect, how to make the most of it.

(Thought there might be a sticky for this. Don't see it if there is. Thanks for rehashing what I'm sure's been covered a million times.)

Hello! There is information on this at this thread
http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=69404

It is under DirecTV information thread. It refers to the HR20, but, as I understand it, they are pretty much the same as the HR21.

You will love your HR21. I already have an HD DVR (HR20), but I'm in the process of also switching out my SD Tivo for an HR21.

Thanks. Knew there must be something.

Yes some things are a bit different, but a lot are better and some of the new little touches are quite nice and show the Tivo's age!

I think the ability to timeshift HD will more than compensate for any TiVo angst.

Enjoy, and please share any growing pains.

They are old but still well worth it. We're here for your questions... most of us have made the same transition.
