Yesterday's piece
from Eric Traub of the New York Times proved to have a
little of that famous "Times Fiction" in it, at least
according to our reader and well-known consumer
electronics author, Gary Merson. Gary writes in
clarifying the inaccuracies of the Times' article.
The
piece from Eric Taub in today's magazine (from his
NY Times article) is very inaccurate, specifially:
(Taub's quotes
are in blue, quotes
from the TiVo website are in
red, and
my comments are in black)
"TiVo Stand-alone TiVos, which can work with any
cable, satellite or antenna setup, start at $150,
with a $12.95-per-month fee for the on-screen
programming service (or $299 for the life of the
unit). If you have two TV signals, TiVo can record
two programs simultaneously"
(from the TiVo website FAQ about "stand alone"
TiVo
No--
TiVo DVRs (work with cable, satellite, antenna)
cannot record more than one show at a time due to
hardware limitations.
The least
expensive TiVo sells for $199 not $150, however
there currently is a $50 mail in rebate offer.
"DirecTV-TiVo" ..."A $999 HDTV-compatible recorder
that does not use TiVo-branded technology will
become available this month. "
(from the TiVo website press release section)
The DIRECTV HD DVR, licensed and designed by TiVo,
features four tuners and can automatically
identify whether an incoming signal is satellite
or off-air and then engage the proper tuner for
recording. The new DIRECTV HD DVR will be
available in the first quarter of 2004.
"It records in progressive format, yielding an
improved picture on digital TV's."
ReplayTVs can only
record interlaced signals (480i). The user can opt
for progressive (de-interlaced) upconverted output
(as found on progressive output DVD players).
(About leased cable hard drive recorders)
"These recorders may lack some TiVo-like features,
like automatic recording of shows that viewers
might be expected to like."
All
hard drive cable
boxes lack TiVo's heuristic logic
for picking programs the user likes.

- SEASON
PREMIERE
"The People vs. Sergius Kovinsky"
Los Angeles District Attorney David Franks is forced to
fight for his political future when his office comes
under investigation after a Russian mob witness is shot
to death and it's suspected someone leaked the witness'
identity. Also shot were two investigators and Shelly
Ward, a young prosecutor, mother and wife, who was there
to film a statement from the witness. Deputy District
Attorney Mark Camacho is brought in from a field office
to investigate the case, and begins to suspect that
someone may have leaked the identity and location of the
witness to the Russian mob. D.A. David Franks' problems
become even more complicated when he starts to believe
that some of his staff members may have loyalties that
lie elsewhere. With this crisis getting so much
attention from the media, Franks finds that his much
needed gubernatorial endorsement from the Mayor is
apparently crumbling.

Crossing Jordan
"Is That Plutonium In Your Pocket,or Are You Just
Happy To See Me?"
With no autopsies assigned to her on her first day as
a pathology resident in the Massachusetts State
Coroner's Office, Devan Maguire (Jennifer Finnigan)
takes Lily's (Kathryn Hahn) task of notifying the wife
(guest star Cyd Strittmatter) of a murder victim that
her husband has been found shot and with traces of
radioactivity on his body. But once she arrives at the
couple's home, she is taken captive by armed men and
must determine the connection between the dead man, a
Geiger counter found in his home, and her kidnapping.
Back at the morgue, Macy (Miguel Ferrer) receives a
visit from FBI Agent Scannell (guest star David
Ramsey) who seems more interested in keeping a
dangerous secret about the dead man and missing
plutonium than protecting the city of Boston. Ravi
Kapoor, Steve Valentine, Jerry O'Connell and Ivan
Sergei also star.
