You pay $12 a month for a service and expect any problems to be fixed quickly and the service to be spruced up regularly.  Tivo just needs to be bought out by a company with real respect for its customers, that is the only way that the company is going to survive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joey Geraci]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on TiVo adds support for 802.11g USB WiFi adapters.

For example Linksys WRT54g can communicate G to G, while also talking B to B with another device.<br><br>Pls post if someone thinks this is incorrect.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[StuBee]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:10AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
