Can I still buy Tivo-branded DVR box for my DirecTV satellite programming?
I recently moved to my uncle's house, which has the DirecTV programming. He has had a TiVo box for a few years and is simply amazing. The other day I went to Best Buy and bought a DirecTV-branded DVR (I think which is the R15), and had no box for DirecTV TiVo. After several nights of frustration with the UI and bad design in general, I have decided look elsewhere for new Tivo brand DVR. I called DirecTV and say I can no longer buy a Tivo-branded DVR for DirecTV programming … at least through them. My question is: Can I buy a TiVo DVR for DirecTV somewhere? Anywhere? And if I could, it would be easy for me to get rid of my current post and create unity TiVo? * And I am not looking to eBay for this, I have only heard bad things about people who sell the units that have not been disowned.
Funny, I was looking the same. I too have been a bit leery of buying on eBay. Your question appeared in my search. I did find a place. (link below) is the Hughes (I one, its great). $ 99 is the rate I've seen in stores. I have the R15 and I hate it. I gave my son my TiVo and now I wish I never did.
