I own a 120 hour TiVo and people make fun of me… imagine what kind of ridicule you’ll get for owning a 300 hour TiVo. Humax, in partnership with TiVo, today announced the first TiVo Series2 DVR with 300-hours of recording capacity. That will give you a little over 12 1/2 days of continuous bed sore creating entertainment. Now, keep in mind that that’s 300 hours at the lowest quality… I’d expect about 150 hours or less of high quality encoding. This is perfect for the Seinfeld fan, just create a season pass and you’ll have you’re very own Seinfeld VOD server… leaving over 200 hours for your other “filler” shows! The Humax T2500 TiVo Series2 DVR will cost you $699 and will be available this month.

I like it, but not for $699. That is ridic. For three hundred dollars more, I can get the 4-tuner HD DirecTivo BEAST!!!

Why not get the $49 40gig refurb series2 tivo from tivo.com and replace the single drive with 2 120GB drives (commonly found for around $70 a piece). Now you have a 240gig tivo for $190. Oh, and sell the 40gig drive on Ebay for more than the cost of the hardware kit to accomodate the extra drive.
