TiVo Stream

The TiVo Stream lets you stream recorded and live TV from your TiVo DVR to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch via TiVo's iOS app. It can also be used to wirelessly download programs straight to your iOS devices. (An updated Android app to work with the Stream is in the works.)

The box is little -- 4 inches wide by 4 inches deep by 1 inch high -- and lightweight at just 4.8 ounces.

TiVo Stream

The only port is for an Ethernet cable. Both the Stream and your TiVo Premiere must have a wired connection to your network by Ethernet or MoCA adapter. The remaining jack is for power.

TiVo Stream

Once connected to your network, the Stream starts hunting for your TiVo. If all goes well, you'll get a solid white light on back. There are no lights on front to let you know you've got power or you're connected; everything's on back.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
