If TiVo Series 3 manages to robustly support external filesystems (I have *no* problems with some sort of encryption scheme here) *and* let me view my preexisting videos through the elegant TiVo interface, I'm there.

Tivo2 allows you to view your external videos and movies files and browse the directories on tivo today.

You can also use galleon to backup your movies and other shows automatically over wireless or wired network.

Given these two and the fact that you can attach a fat external SATA hard disk should be enough to get you out of your mythbox now.
