If you've shelled out the big bucks for a Series3 TiVo, you're probably reveling in high quality, high definition recordings. But it's always seemed a bit silly that you have to give up many of the perks Series2 boxes have to offer, like TiVoCast, KidZone, and WPA wireless support.Well, TiVo's finally rolling out version 8.1 of its software for Series3 owners. It's a phased rollout, so if your TiVo doesn't have the updated software yet, rest assured it's coming soon, probably by next week.
This doesn't mean Series3 TiVo units can do everything a Series2 does just yet. There's still no TiVoToGo for transferring recordings from your set top box to your PC. And there's no multi-room viewing. But that's a small price to pay for CableCard support and high definition television right? Right?
