With the addition of a second MySky in my house my need for my rock solid old friend TiVo is gone.

It has a Cache Card and Ethernet Port (TurboNet I think it's called)

Can't recall if it has a 120 or 160Gb drive....

If there is interest I will take pictures inside and out and email them to interested people.

It has been working fine with Sky Digital in Auckland (EPG via broadband) for many many years.

$400 is my asking price

If it is the network card with the RAM memory slot, whether or not you actually have any memory installed in the slot, then it is called a CacheCard. Although you might want to mention if the card actually has memory in it or not so the potential buyer knows what they are getting.

If it is simply an ethernet card with nowhere to install a memory module then it is termed a Turbonet card, irrespective as to whether it is a genuine "Turbonet" or one of the clone variants.

SOORY, UNIT WAS SOLD ON TRADEME.....on 3/4/09 - A sad day - the end of my TiVo run :-(

OK.....

It has a CacheCard in it (Rev 2.2) - And that has 512Mb PC133 RAM module in it.

Hard Drive is a Hitachi 160Gb Deskstar

I am popping it on TradeMe now so will have to see how it goes there.
TradeMe user name is "trendytots" (it's my wife's ok - stop hassling me!)

Probably best to call or email as I am not on these boards that often any more.
