Tivo HD coming to NZ?

I guess the big question is whether the EPG data will include Sky channels.

The TiVoHD has no AV inputs, so cannot be used with a Sky or any other box - it can record only terrestrial digital broadcasts received via the UHF antenna - ie "FreeviewHD" channels only. The Sky EPG would be of no use on the TiVoHD.
Perhaps Sky might start broadcasting a terrestrial digital signal, but I don't know if TiVoHD software is capable of decryption and subription to pay-TV channels.
Our Seires 1 TiVo's probably won't become redundant for a long time.

You are quite correct - this was confirmed via a query on the mytivo.co.nz website. So Series 1 keep rocking!
Bit of a shame really - it would have been a killer box if it had AV inputs.

TVNZ suggested in the response they are open to a deal with Sky for broadcasting Sky content via Terrestrial digital .. but I don't see that happening somehow! ;-)
