As expected, TiVo Desktop 2.5 has been released. Make that 2.5.274381 to be exact.

Here are a few of the updates in the latest version, some of which are long overdue:

Compatible with Windows Vista
Apple iPod has been added to the list of supported portable devices, and converted files are added to your iTunes library
Supports transfer and playback of XviD and DivX (4.0 and up) files
Adds the ability to convert previously transfered files

Now if TiVo could just come out with a patch that enables Windows Vista to startup and shut down properly we'd be all set.

what does divx inclusion do? does the tivo read divx files now? otherwise it seems a bit pointless.
