Tivo Launches TivoToGo Mobile

Word has been buzzing around the blogosphere (damn, I promised myself I'd never use that word) about the latest upgrade to TivoToGo. (For those not in the US, Tivo is a Digital Video Recorder you can use to time shift TV programs via hard drive instead of video cassette, and latterly also supports place-shifting to other devices such as home PCs). Not being in the US, I don't have TivoToGo (the local equivalent is punishingly expensive for existing customers to upgrade to and incredibly cheap if you're a new customer), although after reading news about this new service, I wish Tivo was available here.

The new version of the TivoToGo service extends Tivo's existing ability to transfer recorded programs to another device by allowing transfer to mobile devices, such as a video iPod, a PSP, one of the Treo smartphones, Creative's Zen, Toshiba's Gigabeat or a Nokia N80. Customers wanting to make use of this new service will need Tivo Desktop 2.3 Plus. The upgrade to the latest version costs US$25, and allows automatic conversion of Tvio recorded programs to MPEG-4 or H.264 video for playback on devices which support such video formats.

Unfortunantely for Macophiles, Tivo Desktop 2.3 Plus is a Windows-only program at present.
