Anyone going to jump on the new Hughes Directv HD Tivo? I am told it ships March 31st. The only drawback I see is no firewire. However, since I just bought a DLP for the bedroom, I will be buying it as soon as it hits the shelf.

Yep... I pre-ordered it a couple weeks ago. I can't wait.

Orbitsat told me that it'll probably be sometime the first half of April... Could be the 1st, could be later, but it'll ship out the day they get them in.
