 [ Mediacentric] DirecTV offers the HD Tivo, but the price-point is awfully high for a “provider” PVR, and DirecTV’s current ownership is just as liable to orphan it as they have the DirecTivo. Since the satellite providers seem to be getting ready to shift to MPEG4, buying this (as opposed to leasing a PVR like the 942) is a real risk, as the odds of them doing a free upgrade of the box to MPEG4 seem pretty slim.
