I was wondering if anyone here in the Twin Cities would happen to have  
a Tivo unit for sale that is either already hacked, or easily hackable  
(i.e. no S2 model with PROM). I have a use for a DVP that will simply  
just do that, play video files in either Tivo or Xvid, to which I can  
copy from a laptop to play on a TV. I want to get a Tivo unit because  
they are small, quiet, cheap, and all I need (hence why I am not going  
to build some MythTV unit).
