Big Announcement From TiVo Coming Tomorrow

Thomas Hawk broke news of a  big announcement from TiVo coming tomorrow at 11AM EST. I have no idea what it could be, but I would guess from the secret and short-term nature of the press conference, it can't be too big. Maybe it's the Comcast/TiVo deal spelled out?

I have a friend in NYC that will be attending and sending me updates, so if all goes well tomorrow morning, I'll have him live-blogging from the event here in the next post, and we'll get photos later that day. Stay tuned to this site tomorrow at 8AM Pacific/11 AM Eastern for updates on the announcement.

comcast deal?

I think it will be the World first TIVO IPTV; or Series III ready to be rolled out; or another set of pattent issued; or better a Time Warp" deal with the rest of the DVR Industry. Tivo has some many surprises that who knows?
Thanks

Well, I think MSFT is going to announce their "Origami" product tomorrow, which is expected to be some sort of portable computing platform. Maybe these are related?

The announcement is their big KidZone initiative. Here it is:

I guess we have another 13 hours before be know for sure... If KidZone comes to pass, it won't do much for me - but maybe it'll move boxes amongst those with small children.

If it is Kidzone, why would they announce it in NYC, at the museum of TV & film?

I think Dave's got it right, it's probably some dumb IFC direct-to-tivo release deal.
