Comcast declaring war on TiVo with the Motorola 6412
Yeah, we know a lot of other cable providers have already begun offering DVR service, but Comcast is supposedly the biggest cable company in America, and since we heard about these units supposedly having some issues (which hasn't yet been fully substantiated) we're at a turning point now that they've begun rolling out Motorola's 6412 DVR; it's finally on, Comcast vs. TiVo. And TiVo, listen up and listen good: these things have dual tuners (don't even try and tell us it's not necessary), they record HDTV, rock HD video on demand, and still do 60 hours of regular TV. And they cost the consumer nothing but an extra $10 per month. Seriously, TiVo, you'd better get your act together quick; giving out a couple thousand free low-end Series 2 boxes isn't going to save you from the ugly fate of The Cable Company wiping you out with dirt-cheap DVR service for one and all.
