Great. One day after I order a Series 3 direct from Tivo.com.
Oh, well, at least I’m guaranteed the unit is eligible for the Lifetime transfer.

Enter the code TCDEAL during checkout (on the shipping/payment screen) for 15% off.
I guess I need to work on my communication skills.
[...] Ben over at EngadgetHD has documented the procedure to upgrade a stock TiVo Series3 250GB hard drive to something larger. If you’d prefer a little more handholding, Weaknees and PTVUpgrade sell both upgraded Series3 units and larger Series3 replacement drives. (As does the TiVo Community Store via PTVUpgrade, with a 15% discount through Sunday.) EngadgetHD writes: The new challenge in upgrading the drive on the Series3 is the fact that it uses a SATA drive instead of IDE. The next problem that SATA presents is the lack of support by the MFSTool bootable CD or PVTUpgrade CD, some SATA controllers support IDE emulation mode, but otherwise we will have to use a different boot disc. We ordered a Western Digital 500GB replacement drive because we didn’t want to have to solder the power cable to fit a normal SATA drive, plus 500GB drives can be found for around $200 which is much less than the $400 that Weakness charges.

Does anyone know whether or not the Lifetime transfer deal is available if we use this discount?
TiVo reps have previously stated that you no longer need to buy the unit directly from them through the special web site in order to transfer Lifetime — supposedly units bought from any vendor are covered. I can’t recall if there was a special 800 number or if you just call the activation line.
Cool, I finally decided to get a slingbox AV with this deal. No tax, no shipping charge.
It is a very good deal. I think I’m going to get my mom an AV unit as well, so we can stop breaking the Terms Of Service.
Actually, so she can appreciate higher resolution over her LAN and know where all her cable channels are.
Deal is still working Monday (11/6), just ordered mine, better hurry!
