Programming services that are used for Tivo & Replay are almost never updated for last-minute programming changes. In the Internet Age we expect better. And we could get better. Because most stations broadcast ID information in the blanking interval, my HDTV has an "info" button that displays info about what I'm watching. This often includes the name of the program. A smart box could detect that the scheduled program was not being broadcast on schedule and could record it when it actually is broadcast. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
