New Toy!!!

OK, so I lost Vonage and had to go back to POTS (plain old telephone system) because of ADT issues, but a new gadget has amazed my tiny little brain. Our cable company has offered 3 free months of DVR. I think it's just like Tivo. It's been around for a while but it's new to me. I can see why they offer it for free. After less than 14 hours with it, I'm already hooked. This thing is incredible. Pause a program, go to the bathroom or to get some p-nut butter nilla wafers, hit play and start where you stopped. During the commercial, hit the "live" button and go right back to real time. SUH-WEET! I love it

OH. MY. GOSH!! We have had DVR for about a year now and we LOVE it. LOVE it! My husband recently lost his job and we have cut back EVERYWHERE we could....except for the DVR. NO WAY am I giving that up...it's the BEST $7 we spend a month! It's nice to be able to set it to record shows automatically so I don't have to worry about a VCR.

I hear the DVR is awesome. Someday I will leap into the 00s and actually get one! :)

DVR's are great, while I don't have one (I don't watch enough TV) my parents do. I love to play with it and record shows for the kids. I've seen several teachers use TIVO to record a program, download it to their computer, edit it, and show it to their class. Very cool tech.
