TiVo Looking For Testers In Australia

Posted on Monday, January 7, 2008 by MegaZone

Today TiVo Australia set out an email which indicates progress is being made in preparing TiVo for the market there – they’re now signing people up for testing. Of course, you need to live in Australia, and meet these requirements:

- I love to watch TV
- I have broadband
- I receive Free To Air TV via an antenna
- I am not afraid of doing some serious homework (about 5 hours a week) on an exciting new product

This is the email:


Dear Mr,

Happy New Year and welcome to the year of TiVo! We’d like to update you on the fantastic features and benefits that only TiVo can offer.
