I'm in the fan club too. I'm no technical whiz, so I just have an off the shelf Sony unit.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned, that I like a lot is you no longer have to know or care when your favorite shows are on. You just tell TiVO you want them recorded, and it does the rest. When you turn the TV on at night, there they are, ready to watch. It also helps when you want to find/record some obscure movie or show. Just tell TiVO you're looking for it, and whenever it finds it on the air, no matter what channel, no matter what time, it records it. Couldn't watch TV without it at this point.
