Just got my Tivo couple of weeks ago. (after reading this thread!)
I have a DirectTV box (without Tivo) and use it with normal Tivo. I didn't get the integrated DirectTV/Tivo because I wasn't sure if I wanted to stay with DirectTV.
The Tivo unit gets the video and audio via an RCA jack and another RCA jack goes to my TV and stereo. And the DirectTV box is controlled by Tivo via infrared connection.
It makes flipping channels a lot slower, but other than that it's great.
