Looking forward to trying out Slacker…even though only with the G1.  For $50, we’ll see how it goes.  I always want to test things out, but today’s emerging tech has such high entry points.  Another thing I want to try in the not too distant future….over the air HD with my TivoHD.  But first I’ll need an HDTV and an antenna.  Why do I have a TivoHD you ask…in case I ever get HD! For now I’m still stuck in analog cable, standard def, 4:3 aspect ratio land…with RCA cables.

Pleased to have found the remote IR code to control our ancient RCA STAV-3970 receiver’s volume with our Tivo remote.  Turns out it was manufactured by Pioneer for RadioShack, so code 1001 works.  Using a combo of the TV volume and the 3 speaker setup seems to sound decent for someone whose idea of surround sound is to put big headphones on.
