Because without a network adapter you don't get: - TiVoToGo - Broadband content - Yahoo Photos, Weather, and Traffic - Fandango - Live365 - Apps.TV - Rapid web scheduling (on a phone line there is a 24+ hour blackout window) - Multi-Room Viewing - Music and Photos - Any HME applications, like Galleon So no, the same thing is not accomplished by connecting the TiVo by phone to Vonage - and that's even if it works, many people find the TiVo modem will not work on their Vongage connection at all. The only way to get all those features is with a network adapter. > I bought a Tivo approved adapter at BestBuy - I think it was Net Gear. It > had a Tivo logo on it. It won't perform as well as TiVo's own adapter. -MZ -- <URL:mailto:megazoneatmegazone.org> Gweep, Discordian, Author, Engineer, me.
