So a SVR2000 is a series1 Tivo I take it?
(I have neither 2000 or 3000)  I have a DirecTivo series1, currently LAN
enables, but its slow, especially with a Telnet session going, and/or
downloading programs.

Is there any faster alternative that is hackable?

Thanks, K

Hi Enuahs,

While the SVR-3000 is a physically better machine (more RAM, faster
CPU), it is still a Series 2 inside, which means, to-date, it is not
hackable (ie. no copy of recordings over the network, no TivoWeb, no
telnet, etc, etc).  Yes, you can get a USB ethernet adapter and have it
fetch guide data over your DSL/Cable connection, but, that's about it.

I plan on keeping my SVR-2000 and wish I had 2 more.  I don't plan on
purchasing another PVR until I can do what I will with the media w/o
corporate interference.
