Dear Mr. Baggins -
I think Comcast rolls out new technology to selected markets before introducing them widespread. Guess this allows them to work out the bugs in order to avoid a flood of Cust Svc calls (or one of those "nasty adventures" as a certain hobbit might say).

Great info about the wireless network (I have one). How would I get my network's WEP key registered for the network card's IP address? I know how to get computers hooked up to my wireless network, but unless I remove the WEP protection I am unclear as to how I would get a TiVO box recognized. Does TiVO provide a software interface for this?

Thanks for your replies re: TiVO. It's really helping me along in the decision making process.
