There was a recent announcement to the effect that TiVo/DirecTV would be 
adding many of the "missing" features to Series 2 DirecTiVos in the near 
future. As I've got an ancient Series 1 DirecTiVo, I didn't pay too much 
attention to this announcement, so I can't provide more details. You might 
dig something up in a Web search or on the DirecTV or TiVo Web sites.
