If you've got a ReplayTV box in the house, it looks like you've only got a few hours left to update your unit for Daylight Saving Time, as the update needs to be applied before March 11th at 2am.But that said, whoa. ReplayTV has issued updates for all of its old 2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx and Showstopper boxes. ReplayTV doesn't even make hardware anymore, and has instead shifted its focus to PC-based PVR software.
You'll need to follow the instructions on ReplayTV's site to initiate the update, unlike TiVo users who should get their updates automatically. But here's the thing, TiVo is pushing out updates for Series2, and Series3 boxes. But the older Series1 units have a major glitch that will throw off any manual recordings you make for the next few weeks.
Raise your hand if you wish ReplayTV had stayed in the hardware market?

Man do I wish they'd kept making hardware.
I have 3 Replays; one is suffering from a dead ethernet port (lightning strike last spring). The UI on Replay and the responsiveness beats everything else hands-down (doubly-so for any Motorola DCT or QIP DVRs).
