Commercial DVR Users, Do You Need WeaKnees?
While commercial offerings are not as easily customized as something you build from parts, there are ways to improve your experience with almost any brand DVR.
WeaKnees, a company that sells, repairs, and modifies commercial offerings is able to increase the record time, increase reliability, and upgrade other hardware features on most any brand that can be name.
While its focus is mainly TiVo units, WeaKnees also will help you with your Ultimate TV DVR, DirecTiVo, Replay TV DVR - including those sold by AT&T and other cable providers, and the newer Direct DVR, non-TiVo models.
Both standard and high definition models are covered, with the ability to increase, to almost ridiculous levels (1300 hrs), the record time of SD DVRs.
WeaKnees also sells modem replacements, networking parts, power supplies, and also (hard to find) remote controls for any of these units.
For those who have both weak knees and are all thumbs, WeaKnees will handle the repair or upgrade completely. Those who consider themselves handy (this would be anyone who has replaced a hard drive in their computer) kits are available to do it yourself, and save money.
