TiVo Befriends with the G1

Now that they are finally putting some paid apps on the market, wouldn’t it be great if TiVo came out with one? I love TiVo and I’m an avid fan and user of the service and I think we need some absolutely to die for apps on the Android Market and an applications where we could edit our TiVo setting from ANYWHERE would definitely do be worth the buy.
A couple great features the TiVo app could have is to show listing of “Whats Hot” that’s going to be coming on the tele for example the Academy Awards and Oscars, movie listings, and more. It would also be cool if they had maybe a Top TiVo thing where you can see the most coveted shows that everybody is trying to get recorded.
But really now, lets get some killer apps out there developers. Even if you have to charge for them. The first person who makes a decent video recorder can charge 1 dollar for the app and I’m sure they’d rack up a few hundred thousand in the first night. So who’s going to be first to create a TiVo application for me? I’ll give you a dollar ?

T-Mobile G1 owners will soon be able to use the feature-rich TeleNav GPS Navigator. TeleNav made the official announcement this morning that their award winning software will be released on February 24th via their website, and will be available in the Android Marketplace later this year. Android Community was given the opportunity to test out the program in advance of its release.
While the G1 comes preloaded with Google Maps, that app certainly falls short if you’re looking for the full PND experience on your phone. Street View and directions are useful, but they’re no substitute for spoken instructions and dynamically-tracking maps. Read the rest of this entry »
