Development continues on the new version of the open-source Galleon application for TiVo. The software already let you listen to your iTunes collection on your TiVo, view local weather forecasts, read RSS feeds, and do a ton of other cool things. Now version 2.5.0 is out with a bunch of updates:

Display photos from iPhoto
Increased album art size for HD displays
Added scalable backgrounds for HD
Fixed lyrics downloading program
Upgraded movie rentals application
Added a screen saver to display cover art and track title for music player
Bug fixes and HD optimizations

There are a few known issues, including a couple of items that still display a bit funny on HDTV screens, but we're just impressed at how quickly the updates keep coming. This is free and open source software and as far as we can tell, there's pretty much just one guy in charge of development.
