Looking for Hughes HD Receiver with TiVo (1 Viewer)

[Alan Bansen]

I hear Hughes is coming out or has already come out with an HD receiver combined with TiVo. Doesn't record in HD but will be easier to use than stand alone units. Does anyone know of this or other like units that are/will be available and where I might purchase one -- retail or online? I'm in Los Angeles. Hughes doesn't seem to have a Web site or, if it does, it's not easily Googleable.

Thanks a lot.

Zenith already has an OTA HD recorder. Dishnetwork will have a Satellite/OTA HD recorder out in November but it won't have the great Tivo features.

Robert:

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like a great piece of equipment and that I should wait, yes? Rather than buying a separate HD reciever to go with my current TiVo? What do you think the price will be -- ballpark?

Thanks again sorry for the delay in response but was laid up with an eye surgery.....

Best.
