Can anyone respond to this thread that actually has one of these devices (or is planning on getting one) that can/will give us an actual review?

I bought a used Series 3 HD from a coworker to give it a try. First, they sent the tech out with CableCards, but no adapter. He said they do not allow the techs to carry them and they have to be picked up or shipped to the customer. I had to go to the office on a Saturday and reschedule an open appointment for Sunday.

After about 2 hours of the Tivo doing its thing, the tech finally left with a working system. Since, we've had a handful of problems from black channels to "Channel Not Available". I was able to reproduce the black channel problem at the same time on a Time Warner box, so I don't think it was the Tuning Adapter or Tivo's fault. The "Channel Not Available" did require a Tivo reboot to regain access to any digital channels.

My observation so far is that the tuning adapter seems to work fine, but the back end SDV system seems to have isssues at times. Maybe just in my neighborhood, but who knows.
