« TiVo Network Remotes for iPhone, Ubuntu | Main | Netflix Player by Roku »
It's been a long time coming but it looks like the TiVo Rewards program is finally shuttering in a couple weeks. I just got my last reminder email and I spent my last 5,000 points (screenshot above is from my email).
Overall, it was a great program for someone like me that turned dozens of friends onto the device. I got a lot of nice stuff back from TiVo in return -- a couple iPods, a nice set of Bose noise-canceling headphones, and I used the points to get several free TiVo boxes for members of my extended family as birthday/xmas gifts. It's a bummer they shuttered the service but it was nice while it lasted.

I'm bummed... most of the third-party stuff is gone and I've got close to 90k points to blow. I don't want a digital camera from 2006 and I don't need any more TiVo units. Hmmm.

Well Dave, I could use a TiVoHD if you want to sell me one. :)

Sure, how does $175 sound with free shipping (via TiVo) sound? :)
