DR Cillaliz, I'm pretty sure that I've heard from Tivo that users will soon be able to order from Netflix through their Tivo units.

Does anyone have the Netflix player to instantly play movies?   I don't think the DVR that comes with my cable has the ability to connect to the internet.  I think they disabled it, so, I'm considering buying the Roku Netflix player.  Any thoughts?

From the little I've read, the quality is not quite up to DVD level of quality (a little better than VHS but not up to DVD). So, if picture quality is important to you, this may not be the way to go.

If at first you don't succeed, that's about average for me.

I'm still very tired, so I'm heading down to bed.

Good night!

My problem is that I don't think that will work with our cable DVR.  hmmm  I'm going to check into this.

Well, If you get an HD Tivo, and have your cable service install the cable cards into it, you can use it as your cable box.  I'm planning on doing this in the coming months.

Early day today with astonishing business, even earlier day tomorrow (but, fortunately only four hours), so it's nigh onto bedtime for me.  (I've gotta tell you, Miss Dixie Bell does not appreciate these earlier wake up mornings at all).

I was just looking at that.  I think I'll call my cable company and ask some questions about it

It's a little known fact that Bette Davis' line in THE CABIN IN THE COTTON was originally:  "I'd like to kiss you, but my mercury levels are too high."

Thanks you DRs Cilla, Danise, Singdaw,Jose, George, Laura, Vixmom, Jennifer, Ginny, JRand, TCB, td, FJL, & Dan(theMan).  If I missed anyone I’m sorry.  If DR Penny stops by please let her know the knews-thanks.

Jose-LOL

Dan(theMan)-LOL, boy times have changed.  We gave up on “guest” rooms years ago.

Bryan is on route to Portland, next flight out is cutting it very close.  We shall see what happens.  If need be we found we can delay this for a day but by then the snow may be back.  You would think a wedding with only 5 people would be stress free! ;D

After we picked them up from the hotel we went to the courthouse to get the license.  The woman who will officiate was in & they met her-such a nice, nice woman.  She is not charging for & is doing it as a favor from one mother to another.

Thanks Cilla.  If the plane is not late we just might make it, even if it means getting married in the park to save time.  We picked out a spot just in case.  Of course it can't rain for that one ;)

Well, I have to think about the TIVO.  It would be a lot cheaper to just get the Netflix box for now and if I later decide to go with TIVO, I can always use the Netflix box on a different TV...but not sure.

Unbelievable.  Not one post for two hours, even though I, BK, saw FJL and others here.
