Pizza ordering on a TiVo coming to Australia

This story of a new feature being added to TiVos in Australia sounds awesome: ordering pizza from the couch. Yeah, on first read it totally reinforces the whole "couch potato" aspect of watching TV and eating unhealthy food, but every once in a while a nice pizza hits the spot. I'd love to see it come to the US.

I've ordered a pizza online before (Domino's, because it was the only option) mostly just to try it out (it was easy and nice to get exactly what I wanted without having to sit on the phone for several minutes) and I imagine the experience in a TiVo environment could be pretty quick and easy once you store your address and phone number.

Wow: looks like someone floated this idea on a blog in 2004

I was looking on my (4) Series 2 boxes today and it had an option to order a Domino's Pizza on it.
Colorful pix & everything. It pulls all your info from your existing Online Domino's Account.

I don't know how long it has been there, but I saw it today 11/19/08.

This has been in the UK for at least 8 years. Since 1999 I think. See below URL for instance:
