Which reminds me- I have a request.  I need one you you University
trained brainy-types to invent something.  You could make billions- be
the next (dare I say it)  Bill Gates.   I was watching something on TV
the other day, and it was on cable- here we have cable-boxes with DVR.
Well, I wanted my friend to see it, but since I hadn't videotaped it,
and I can't physically give her something that's been Ti-Voed, I
thought it would be neat to have a device like a USB cord to attach to
the DVR and into the computer and just send it to her via email- like
an MP3 or WAV. Does anything like this exist?
