   Just to be clear… If you’re in the beta group, you’re expected to keep any and all information private. My status with Digeo is unique – so do not follow my lead unless given clearance by the powers that be. Stay out of trouble.

   I remember Leo Laporte naming the Moxi Best of CES for Tech TV back in the day. What was that 2002?

   Hmmm. Every time I’ve been part of a beta test (which may be exactly zero times), my NDA (which may not have existed), precluded me from even revealing that I was involved in the beta test (or maybe I wasn’t).

   Is this NDA different? Or, does Zatz have a special one?

   Bruce, my access to pre-release hardware and information is being facilitated by Digeo’s PR Director – as with most Moxi coverage I’ve provided in the past.

   What good is it if CableCards are not supported?

   A reasonable question and something both Megazone and I have asked repeatedly in terms of positioning this DVR model. Digeo’s also got another model in the pipeline that does indeed support CableCARDs (one M-Card) actually. I assume the interface and much of the functionality will be the same on both models, so I’m looking forward to playing with this unit (though I’m out of town next week for work, vacationing New Years weekend, and then 7 or 8 days in Vegas for CES – which is why I wouldn’t be a good beta tester).

   Yeah, I’m looking forward to seeing that the Moxi story is at CES this year.

   I’m looking forward to seeing some info/reviews on this unit. I signed up for the beta, but have not heard anything yet.

   Keep up the good work.

   I’ve applied too — would love to try this out. No word here either.

    This thing still has one up on the Series 2 TiVo with the unencrypted QAM tuner. Can’t wait for the CableCard version of the Moxi.

    I didn’t make the cut. Would have been nice to compare to my HD TiVos.

    I got the ‘Sorry’ email too.
