TiVo has let out some information revealing that it will be making a big announcement on March 2. An anonymous tipster claiming to have knowledge about the recent developments in TiVo's beta program reveals information about the company's up and coming changes. Amongst the changes are bug fixes for the Series 3. The company is focusing on perfecting the DVR with a few software changes to make the user interface speedy and provide a new high resolution and crisp widescreen elements designed to look appealing on your TV screen. TiVo is also working on trying to add a capacity meter for add-on drives and TiVo desktop enhancements including "Sling" like features. That being said, all these upgrades won't help the company compete with other competitors such as Netflix, Amazon, and even the declining Blockbuster. There aren't any real details on the hardware side but a QWERTY remote seems to be in the works which may prove to be very appealing to the public. Either way, we'll know on March 2nd for sure. TiVo really isn't where I expected it to be, when it was first released it was a huge hit and TiVo the word almost became a verb with people saying things such as "I'll TiVo it." Hopefully the once strong company can bounce back up and start doing well again as well as provide us consumers more convenience and comfort.
