Default Telly Users...are there any?

Come on. Telly users. Tell us how the thing works.
Or, maybe Telly is just vaporware.

The website says:

- Telly can't play back closed captions
- Only video (no sound) can be recorded from auxiliary inputs
- Picture quality is between VCR and DVD

But there is nothing from an actual customer presented there,
or anywhere. Only reviews by writers who seem to have copied
much of their material right out of the Telly "Media Room".

Has anyone ever ordered, received, installed, and used a Telly?

Let us hear from you!


If there where why would they post in a tivo forum where mostly devoted tivo
fans are? Sounds pretty troll to me.

It seems to always be "Ethel" asking about Telly, then ignoring any
responses. Clearly "Ethel" is someone with an interest in Telly. Everyone
here is delighted with TiVo, nobody is going to spend the big $$$ for a
lesser product. I hope Telly doesn't have a lot of private investors
because it's a day late and a dollar short, and far too expensive.
