Discovery HD showed Japanese coverage of the total solar eclipse from Antarctica. Amazing to see HD pictures from the ground of the frozen south along with live coverage from a plane at 30,000ft. During totallity you could clearly see a red solar flare sticking up from the sun as well as the corona.

The sun is barely above the horizon down there, so it was very impressive so low down.

Going to see the new HDTiVo on Tuesday at a sneak peek. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

The ultimate tv has a keyboard which is really handy for searching and stuff... do they have that?

No just the usual TiVo wishlists, season passes etc. You will be able to specify HD/SD as a criteria for wishlists and even record both versions if you need. You can only archive an SD version (thanks to the content providers lawyers).

They had a complete boolean search language specified at one time and backed off so that ma and pa middle america would still be able to use it.
