YOU GET A TIVO! YOU GET A TIVO! YOU GET A TIVO! EVERYBODY GETS A TIVO!
So living in Silicon Valley is fun if you are a geek, but often I think my friends believe I can just pop over to Apple Headquarters or Adobe Headquarters and pick up a free iPod or a free copy of Creative Suite. That perception probably isn't going to be helped by the fact that tomorrow morning you can just pop over to TiVo Headquarters in north San Jose and pick up a free TiVo.
It seems my favorite DVR company has jumped on the fact that Comcast's announcement of Bay Area DVR service appears to be a ruse, designed to keep people from buying TiVos for Christmas. They annouced the availability of Comcast DVRs earlier this month... but if you call to order one Comcast representatives will tell you it will take anywhere from 3 weeks to 3 months to actually get one. Sounds like a bunch of crap to me, considering they told me that a year ago.
But if you want a TiVo, all you have to do is drop by TiVo Central tomorrow morning, bring a current Comcast bill along with a toy to donate to the needy and they'll hook you up with a sweet sweet TiVo box.
You get a TiVo. Some kid gets a toy. It's a win-win.
