We've had Dish Network with the 501 PVR for two years now, and it's excellent. No need to connect to the phone line, no fee except for the normal dish bill. I can search for actors, words in the description, or titles. It isn't as smart as TiVo in that it records timeslots, not specific television shows, but it works great for the most part. They finally added slow motion and frame-by-frame a couple months ago.
(it automatically downloads and installs software upgrades when the receiver is shut off.)

And yes, I never watch live TV anymore. I can't stand having to watch commercials!
