While 802.11 has been around for far longer than most people realize...it
was not in wide use when the TiVo was being designed, developed, and
initially deployed.

Nowadays, the cost of adding an 802.11 radio and associated software to a
box is generally somewhere between $100 and $200...  By the end of this
year, it'll probably be under $100 and moving down.

Two to three years ago it was closer to $1000.  And there was no way that
was going in a consumer product.
