As the one who asked you in that OOT Tivo thread to start a thread on your setup, thanks !
I consider myself only slightly-above-avg in terms of knowledge of these things, but I do enjoy a good setup. I recently got the
Sony KDL-40V2500 which is a great TV.
I would have gotten an Oppo dvd player, but due to a large Circuit City credit that I needed to use, I got the
Samsung DVD-HD960 which also has a Faroudja chip.
I haven't been sold on the Series3, so am still using my Tivo Series2 for SD content, and a Cablevision DVR for HD.
I'll certainly check out your recommendation on the remote control. Right now I've just got a pile of remotes on the coffee table..
