Im thinking of buying it, anyone have it? Does it suffer the same video quality issues as the 810h? Not much mention of it on tivocommunity
Obviously I'll be hacking it since I'm in NZ.
It is a little expensive but my current TiVo has recordings I'd like to archive off, my PC DVD-R rom broke and my PC's mainboard is shot. (I'll look at replacing those later)

The 810h has video quality issues? Have my eyes gone south that fast?

1) I treat TivoCommunity with a grain of salt, because other information I have says it's censored at the whims of the moderators.
but also
2) I record everything on extreme quality, and don't watch Live TV through it (or through my other TiVo, or ever)
