I would like to download TiVo records to my PPC. Unfortunately, the list of supported devices for their "TiVo to Go" option does not include my Samsung SPH-i700. I've tried some obvious workarounds (like using Microsoft's Windows Media Encoder), without success. I suspect that I could always burn a DVD, then rip the DVD. However, is there a simpler and quicker approach? Are there any software packages that can convert a .tivo file to .wmv format?

Thank you, isajoo, that's one possible workaround.

I've researched whether one can download from Tivo to a Zune. As far as I've seen, neither Tivo nor Microsoft have even hinted at such. Has anyone heard any inside dope on this??
