Slashdot linked up news of the unveiling of Tivo Series 3 boxes:

The unit has two CableCARD slots on the back and it will support Multi-Stream (CableCARD 2.0) or Single-Stream (CableCARD 1.0) cards. If you have multi-stream then you only need one card, but as long as only single stream cards are available you can use two of them. Yes, the unit is dual-tuner - actually, like the HD DirecTiVo it can use any two of the tuners it has, and it has six. 2 cable tuners, 2 ATSC tuners, and 2 NTSC tuners. Yes, it supports digital and analog cable, digital ATSC OTA, and analog NTSC OTA.

"Dual tuner" means (finally) watch one show, record another, keep all nifty Tivo features on both. Front controls! No more being stranded because Olivia stuffed the remote into one of her pillows. CableCARD means no cable boxes! Plug your Tivo in, slot the card, and you get whatever channels you want whenever you want them. I detest cable boxes, always have, so this is a very interesting feature for me.

Sha. Like I don't already watch too much TV. Price TBD, which probably means "expensive", but dude... NO CABLE BOX!!!

Drool...
