Cool. Ok I need to > stop watching so much TV. as others have mentioned there are a couple Pluto threads floating around. one turn off is that the bluetooth phone has to be a Symbian OS phone i believe. that limits your choices a bit. Pluto's MythTv functionality is a watered down version of Myth. both of those statements are hearsay, i 'believe' i read them in other posts or on some other forum as i've never played with Pluto myself. although i have checked out their website and if i had the time and money, would play around with it. :) good luck with the house. i'd love more details/updates. :) _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
