The semiconductor market is awash in fabs for sale, and right now someone in China, India or other emerging technology hub is rubbing his hands at the prospect of picking up expensive equipment cheaply.
With component prices frequently under pressure, and in a market where product offerings must be refreshed almost every three months, few companies can invest huge sums in R&D and still run old fabs profitably. A convincing case can thus be made for closing old fabs and turning to foundries for wafer supplies. But doesn't that put the industry at risk?
Supply chain strategies driven by the need to cut costs on a short-term basis have been the bane of this industry, and I fear the current trend will concentrate wafer production in a few hands.
Capital expenditures will decline at AMD, STMicroelectronics and other chip companies adopting the asset-lite strategy. As a result, their operating expenses will fall, net income will likely rise and investors will be happy.
Let's hope, however, that someone is scanning the horizon and preparing for the clouds building up ahead.

University to update Wi-Fi network
An update to Towson's wireless network will improve performance and increase accessibility to Wi-Fi on campus before the fall semester.
A new network called TUopenaccess will replace the current TU-guest network this summer. TUopenaccess will not require a username or password, Associate Director of Communication Services for the Office of Technology Services, Eric Cannizzo said.
According to Cannizzo, the University is increasing the amount of Internet bandwidth available to all students by 55 percent
The changes will provide students with faster access to Internet content. Guests of students will be able to connect to the Internet wirelessly without needing students to create an account for their guests, Cannizzo said.
Previously, certain devices such as Xbox, PlayStation and Apple TV were unable to connect through Towson's wireless network because it required a password. Such devices will now be able to connect wirelessly through TUopenaccess, said Cannizzo.
Students will no longer need to install the NAC client when connecting to the TU-Secure wireless network or when connecting to the network with a network cable, according to Cannizzo.
The University will also update the wireless network in Glen Towers B and C to improve coverage and performance, he said.
"The structure of Glen Towers A, B, C and D makes providing reliable wireless service challenging. However, the University is committed to providing the best quality wireless network possible in all of its residence halls," Cannizzo said.
To implement these changes, Cannizzo said the University worked with industry experts to provide an optimal wireless configuration. However, the work required to upgrade the wireless network in the Glen Towers requires the buildings to be empty.
Glen Towers B and C will be updated this summer. Glen Towers A and D will be updated in the summer of 2015, the next time they are not in use, said Cannizzo.

Camera Arms For HuntingSeptember 15th, 2011 / Author: admin
Camera Arms For Hunting
Hunting Gears - Night Vision Goggles is Hunter's Best Friend
While weapons continue to promote and improve, what camouflage hunter awareness to benefit? of camouflage goes back to the Stone Age. His existence depended on intelligence to compensate for both his physical and sensory limitations. Also consider the countless variations of species' habitats and behavior patterns, the landscape and the seasons hunters have encountered over the centuries. Efforts to find game and make it succumb to the skill is still the ultimate goal In other words -.. outwit prey course requires it to attract as little attention as possible if you are hunting for game This art. create decoys, disguises or clothes, mixed with the landscape has appeared in various forms for centuries. Are we straying too far from the natural instincts and traditions Now that hunting has entered the 21st century?
Early in the 19th century earth tones prevailed for the hunter. However, placed more on style and an elegant character for a gentleman who seek social recognition instead of being fit for a stalker. The popular pattern installed at one time was completely devoid of comfort or convenience. However, hunters legally distinct from the forest workers who admitted to fashion to show their status in society. They demanded that the clothes should be loosened regardless of style or their social status. By the second half of the 19th century, the focus was more on a comfortable fit and materials provide protection from the elements.
Research into the 20. century told us with certainty that many animals can not see or detect colors that man does. size of their eyes and many other factors determine how they see. For example, deer are grazing animals with night vision. Their enhanced visual senses at dawn and dusk making them fully capable to avoid obstacles while it runs through a tree in the dark. This may also suggest that colorful clothing is quite adequate and decreases the risk of hunting accidents. But do not forget, if camouflage clothing contains UV brighteners, you will not increase your chances to take one home.
If you have the ability and luck to hunt for bighorn sheep, you consider a few tips during the planning of your trip. You must be functional, lightweight equipment, including a good pair of binoculars. Mountain sheep have visions several times sharper than man, and they maneuver with ease over treacherous terrain. The best chance for a trophy is approaching fully covered in camouflage. What nature has to offer in this situation?
Advances in technology provide us with sophisticated weapons, night vision goggles, GPS, computers, video cameras and a wide selection of earth tone color and camouflage Patterned outer wear made after a certain standard or safety requirement. But as state rules are enforced to make this activity safer, it is logical to assume that UV brighteners and manmade materials do not really camouflage at all, and perhaps give a false sense of security.
Do you still think of our hunting ancestors as primitive? Despite everything they needed an advantage and a smart solution gave them an edge -. Camouflage It could have been as simple as smearing ash or mud on their faces or hide them behind the green twigs in. Even the earliest days, the hunters were mammoth specialists. Spears chipped stone found among the bones of these animals supports this theory. We also know that the bones were used as weapons along with the element of surprise and different ways to lure their prey into traps. None less, our ancient ancestors were very good at what they did. After all, where would we be now without their expertise? How will the art of camouflage develop into the 22nd century, and it will have a positive or negative impact on hunter?

Would a society with little or no guns to be better than one with easy access to them?
I know I can piss a lot of Americans out to ask this but try to have an open mind. Do you honestly believe that a society is better with people who carry weapons? In my country it is not allowed to roam around with a pistol clipped to your belt, and there is less armed robbery that way. There has been a school shooting because someone would notice someone walking in a bolt action hunting rifle and you'll be able to put up a fight for a hunting rifle. Why people think it is better to give potential psychotic killers to possess handguns? I know that "background checks" and certificates required, but there have been people with hidden cameras, bought guns without being asked for ID.

Live within the stunning world heritage site of iSimangaliso Wetlands and provide teaching assistance to vulnerable and disadvantaged children in the village creches of St Lucia in South Africa. Combine this project with a volunteer trip to Thanda Private Game Reserve and SAVE, plus we'll give you a free Elephant Interaction Experience! Click here for more details!
Orphan Day Care & HIV/AIDS Education Project, South Africa St. Lucia, East Coast of South Africa
We aim to increase provisions by partnering with caregivers in the community, providing direct assistance to Orphan Day Care Centres as well as Educational Forums about leading a healthier lifestyle. This project gives you the opportunity to engage with people – young and old – to make a positive impact while at the same time undergoing an unforgettable, life-changing experience in South Africa.
Orphan Day Care Centres
Within the local village of Khula, several crèches and day care centres have been established to provide children with a meal, basic education, and attention and care they so often lack at home. Our aim is to assist the crèche caregivers and local teachers by helping with basic learning, fun activities and lots of educational play for the children- on some occasions there are as many as 80 children to be looked after!
Volunteers visit the day care centres every morning (Monday to Friday) and will assist in taking care of the children and teaching basic lessons to a class of under 6's. The volunteer role is fundamental to the development of the children and in the preparation for their next step into primary school. This is a great opportunity to help enrich the lives of many children in the community through developmental play and education, by giving them the individual attention they so desperately need.
Volunteers play a huge part in the Orphan Day Care and HIV/AIDS Education Project and you can anticipate the opportunity to forge special bonds with the adorable children, teachers, and other community members during your stay.
In addition to teaching the children, we are attempting to show the teachers more interactive and engaging teaching methods. The crèches have little or no resources for play or education and most of the teachers have received little or no formal teaching.
We work together with the teachers and the Department of Welfare when writing our curriculum. In an average week, the children will study a range of topics such as letters, numbers, colours and stories. We also dedicate one morning a week to physical education in which the children work on their ball and team playing skills. We try and maintain a consistent daily routine by structuring the day with lessons, circle time, story time, singing, dancing and playtime.
As a volunteer, you will observe that the children's range of abilities at crèche is quite vast. Many of the crèches are overcrowded with up to 60-80 children attending each day. One of the great benefits of having volunteers is that there is extra help and the possibility for one to one or small group teaching so the children can receive more individual attention. The volunteer role is fundamental to the early development of the children and in the preparation for their next step into Primary School. The one to one attention the children get from volunteers is so valuable as this is otherwise not available with the restricted number of carers and teachers.
Orphan-Care After-School Club
African Impact volunteers are currently involved in two outreach facilities for orphans in the area. Due to the widespread poverty and prevalence of HIV/AIDS, many children are born into situations where their chances for a good upbringing are very low. The children in the afterschool project come from teenage pregnancies or have lost their one or two parents and some were abandoned.
After School Club is opportunity to provide the children with some attention, care and stimulation that might otherwise be lacking in their lives. Volunteers assist with serving lunch and planning and leading after school playtime activity for the children 7-15 years old. You will be involved in playing educational games and sports with these energetic children.
Adult English Classes
Although English is one of the official languages of South Africa, many people in the villages of Khula and Ezwanlisha have Zulu as their mother tongue with little or no confidence in using English. Many adults and teenagers in these villages are very keen to improve their English, as they recognise that it is the path to finding employment here in KwaZulu Natal.
We follow the 'Headway' teaching English course that has a simple but thorough coverage of the English language and includes all aspects: speaking, reading, writing and listening. Volunteers need to use their creativity to make lessons relevant, interactive and fun.
Thorough support is given by the project manager during the planning sessions to ensure the students are receiving the best English lessons to improve their opportunities for the future. Be prepared to put a lot of hard work into the planning and you will be amazed with the results. Teaching English to adults can seem daunting but you will be fully supported by our project team and it is a great way to gain insight into the culture and make new friends - many volunteers do find this project most rewarding.
Reading Club
We are incredibly lucky to have a donated shipping container which is filled with books and games for children and adults. Volunteers have helped turn the container into the village library and we have now introduced a weekly Reading Club for the community teenagers. This project is one of the most popular projects for both students and volunteers.
The aim is to provide a relaxed setting and to show that learning and literacy can be fun. Most weeks there are 30-50 teenagers attending. The surrounding schools have very few resources and limited text books. This is an opportunity for students to have access to a huge range of books and for them to develop a love of reading and increase their confidence in English. As a volunteer you will assist with the following:
- Help the children find appropriate books for their reading level
- Sit one-on-one with children as they read and help improve their reading skills
- Give a fun 'Story Time' for all the students
- Help record student's progress and the number of books they have completed so they can feel empowered and proud of their achievements
- Motivate children to discover more about the world
10 Families Community Outreach Project

The film tells the story of Llewyn Davis, a one time folk singer who was part of a duo, who after losing his partner, and making his own solo record, is trying to get his life together.
Llewyn Davis isn't a nice man. He lives on peoples couches, taking advantage of them and is a permanent slacker. He's a penniless artist trying to make a name for himself and doing whatever he can to survive. The thing that makes him so unlikeable is that everything is about him. He has an air of entitlement about him and thinks he is better than everyone else. Yet you cant help but feel sorry for him. It's a good job by the actor taking this arrogant character and somehow making you want to root for him.
John Goodman's character is the older, more haggard version of Llewyn. Still playing shows, having made it a little bit when he was younger. Its probably why their characters don't like each other.
The film ends exactly how it started, and even though it seems like Llewyn is going to try and move on with his life, something always gets in the way, and makes him just continue on this endless cycle of sleeping on peoples couches and trying to make it big.

Florida Panthers @ Columbus Blue Jackets
Saturday, February 1st, 2014 – 7:00PM
Nationwide Arena, Columbus, Ohio
Get your finger off that panic button! The Columbus Blue Jackets eased some of our fears Thursday night with a big 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals at Nationwide Arena. Columbus was firing on all cylinders and despite giving up another shorthanded goal, they managed to kill off seven Washington power plays.
After an eight game winning streak, a three game losing streak had some Blue Jackets fans wondering if this would be a case of "same old Jackets". However, with the win, Columbus secured a 10-4 record for the month of January, and still remain in the playoff picture.
Tonight, the Florida Panthers make their first visit to Nationwide Arena for their first of three match ups with the Columbus Blue Jackets this year. Florida currently sits at seventh in the Atlantic Division, ahead of only the Buffalo Sabres. However, they have managed to play the role of the spoiler several times throughout the 2013-14 season; this includes a 5-4 win last Sunday over the Detroit Red Wings and a 5-1 win over the Penguins back on January 20th.
The Blue Jackets needs to continue the offensive attack we saw against the Washington Capitals. They also need to avoid playing down to their opposition. While the Panthers may appear to be an easy opponent, the Penguins and Red Wings will tell you a different story. Let's also not forget that it was the last place Buffalo Sabres that ended the big winning streak for the Jackets.
- The Columbus Blue Jackets FF% (5v5 Close game situation) hit a new peak against the Capitals: 59.3%. The previous high was 58% against the Coyotes back on January 2nd. See the trend in this chart courtesy of Extra Skater.com:
- The Jackets are now up to a pace of 2.87 goals per game. That ties them with the San Jose Sharks for 7th overall. Meanwhile the Panthers are averaging 2.32 GPG, the 4th fewest in the NHL. [ NHL.com ]
- Florida's 76.9 PK% is the second worst in the league, ahead of only the New York Islanders. The Jackets are in the middle of the pack (17th) with a 80.7 PK% [ NHL.com ]
Noteable Noteables:
- Stay tuned to the Union and Blue, as well as the Columbus Blue Jackets twitter for the latest news from the CBJ morning skate. There aren't too many lineup changes expected.
- Jared Boll took part in his first skate since his surgery yesterday. He isn't nearing a return by any means, but it is a move in a positive direction.
The Union and Blue Song For The Game:
Against Me! – "Sink, Florida, Florida Sink"
(Content Warning: Two F-Bombs in this one)
Been saving this one for when the Florida Panthers come into town! One of my favorite Against Me! songs.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Clips: Drama Ahead!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
You won't believe this, but the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion special will be filled with tears, screaming matches and a great deal of drama.
At the center of it all? Tamra Barney, whose issues with her ex and whose new, nauseating romance have been a major focus of the season.
Over the course of an hour, Barney...
... accuses Gretchen Rossi of "sleeping with another guy while your fiancé was dying."
... screams: "Is your ass jealous of the s–– that comes out of your mouth?"
... storms off the set after accusing Jeana Keough of lying fighting with Gretchen's boyfriend, Slade Smiley.
Fun times ahead, huh? The excitement will air on Bravo on June 12.
I think its time for a "Housewives from the Hood" version. Boring, bitchy white women is very pasee. Let's

Jeanne & Geachen are the best!! The only two womena on this stupid show with any class!!! Vickie is a victim. Its always everyone else fautl. She is getting excatly what she deserves!! Tamra is trailer trash. Always has been and always will be!!
Tamra is trash!! Always has been and always will be. Cant buy class!!
I hate Jenna she is a noisy bitch! Tamra has the right to be upset! Simon was so mean to Tamra,i'm glad she left him, she's dating a sexy new man, and you can tell he just adore's herI hope it works out for her. As far as Geachen, she used Jeff...I think after time being w him she start to care for him, but i now that wasn't the case when they first started dating. she seen dollar signs. Tamra was right to speck her mind,not to mention , the ex boyfriend called Tamra, and i believe every word Tamra said the Ex told her about Geachen!!!
Tamara Barney should be ashamed of the way she acts of RHOOC. She's nothing but trailer park trash and her and Vicki deserve eachother. They are both rudes egotistical people that need to be brought down an few notches. Losers. I love Gretchen, she was a jerk this season but the other 2 deserved it after the way they've treated her over the years. Jeana didn't do anything wrong but maybe talk to the press but she didn't push Tamara or anything and was way classier than T.
Watching Tamra is not fun. She doesn't belong in those beautiful houses at upscale parties. She and her mom behaved like Trailer Park Trash. Tamra belongs at some Clam Shack downing some Jack Daniels. I think she's a closet alcoholic. I applaud Gretchen for telling Tamra what a hypocrite she is. I wouldn't watch the show if it weren't for Gretchen, who is real.
I love Jeanna. I think she was wrong to speak to the press but in no way deserved the response she got from Tamra. Tamra has always acted like an animal when she's angry. She's gross.

Electronic waste by country
Electronic waste has become a significant part of the waste stream. Efforts are being made to recycle and reduce this waste.
Basel Convention[edit]
The Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, usually known simply as the Basel Convention, is an international treaty that was designed to reduce the movements of hazardous waste between nations, and specifically to prevent transfer of hazardous waste from developed to less developed countries.
Of the 172 parties to the Convention, Afghanistan, Haiti, and the United States have signed the Convention but have not yet ratified it.
Government regulation[edit]
The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) tends to support the repair and recycling trade. Mining to produce the same metals, to meet demand for finished products in the west, also occurs in the same countries, and UNCTAD has recommended that restrictions against recycling exports be balanced against the environmental costs of recovering those materials from mining. Hard rock mining produces 45% of all toxins produced by all industries in the United States.[1]
Greenpeace contends that residue problems are so significant that the exports of all used electronics should be banned.[2]
South Africa[edit]
The e-Waste Association of South Africa (eWASA)[3] was established in 2008 to manage the establishment of a sustainable environmentally sound e-waste management system for the country. Since then the non-profit organization has been working with manufacturers, vendors and distributors of electronic and electrical goods and e-waste handlers (including re-furbishers, dismantlers and recyclers) to manage e-waste effectively.
Many Asian countries have legislated, or will do so, for electronic waste recycling.
South Korea, Japan and Taiwan ensure manufacturer responsibility by demanding that they recycle 75% of their annual production.[4]
Chinese laws are primarily concerned with eliminating the import of e-waste. China has ratified the Basel Convention as well as the Basel Ban Amendment, officially banning the import of e-waste.[5] In October 2008, The Chinese State Council also approved a "draft regulation on the management of electronic waste."[5] This regulation is intended to promote the continued use of resources through recycling and to monitor the end-of-life treatment of electronics. Under the new regulations, recycling of electronics by the consumer is mandated. It also requires the recycling of unnecessary materials discarded in the manufacturing process.[6]
Some European countries implemented laws prohibiting the disposal of electronic waste in landfills in the 1990s. "This created an e-waste processing industry in Europe."
In Switzerland, the first electronic waste recycling system was implemented in 1991, beginning with collection of old refrigerators. Over the years, all other electric and electronic devices were gradually been included in the system. Legislation followed in 1998, and since January 2005 it has been possible to return all electronic waste to the sales points and other collection points free of charge. There are two established producer responsibility organizations: SWICO, mainly handling information, communication, and organization technology, and SENS, responsible for electrical appliances. The total amount of recycled electronic waste exceeds 10 kg per capita per year.[7]
Additionally, the European Union has implemented several directives and regulations that place the responsibility for "recovery, reuse and recycling" on the manufacturer.
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive), as it is often referred to, has now been transposed in national laws in all member countries of the European Union. It was designed to make equipment manufacturers financially or physically responsible for their equipment at the end of its life, under a policy known as Extended producer responsibility (EPR). "Users of electrical and electronic equipment from private households should have the possibility of returning WEEE at least free of charge",[8] and manufacturers must dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner, by ecological disposal, reuse, or refurbishment. EPR is seen as a useful policy as it internalizes the end-of-life costs and provided a competitive incentive for companies to design equipment with fewer costs and liabilities when it reached its end of life.[9] However, the application of the WEEE Directive has been criticized for implementing the EPR concept in a collective manner, and thereby losing the competitive incentive of individual manufacturers to be rewarded for their green design.[32] Since August 13, 2005, electronics manufacturers have become financially responsible for compliance to the WEEE Directive. Under the directive, each country recycles at least 4 kg of electronic waste per capita per year. Furthermore, the Directive should "decrease e-waste and e-waste exports.".[10] In December 2008 a draft revision to the Directive proposed a market-based goal of 65%, which is 22 kg per capita in the case of the United Kingdom.[11] A decision on the proposed revisions could result in a new WEEE Directive by 2012.
The Directive on the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (2002/95/EC),[12] commonly referred to as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS Directive), was also adopted in February 2003 by the European Union. The RoHS Directive took effect on July 1, 2006, and is required to be enforced and become law in each member state. This directive restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment.
The Battery Directive enacted in 2006 regulates the manufacture, disposal and trade of batteries in the European Union.[13]
North America[edit]
In February 2004, a fee similar to the one in California was added to the cost of purchasing new televisions, computers, and computer components in Alberta, the first of its kind in Canada.[14] Saskatchewan also implemented an electronics recycling fee in February 2007,[15] followed by British Columbia in August 2007,[16] Nova Scotia in February 2008,[17] and Ontario in April 2009.[18] In 2007, Manitoba issued the Proposed Electrical and Electronic Equipment Stewardship Regulation by which the sale of regulated products is forbidden unless covered by the stewardship program. "Products covered under this legislation include TVs, computers, laptops, and scanners."[19] Recycling regulation passed in Ontario in October 2004, requires producers to "either develop product stewardship plans or comply with a product stewardship program for specific products."[20]
Canadian Federal legislation The Export and Import of Hazardous Waste and Hazardous Recyclable Material Regulations (EIHWHRMR) operates with a few basic premises, one of which being that electronic waste is either "intact" or "not intact". The various annexes define hazardous waste in Canada, and also deem any waste that is "...considered or defined as hazardous under the legislation of the country receiving it and is prohibited by that country from being imported or conveyed in transit" to be covered under Canadian regulation and therefor subject to prior informed consent procedures.[21][22]
The loophole in the regulations that allows tons of e-waste to be exported from Canada is the use of the definition of "intact" vs "functional". A non-functioning electronic device that is intact can be exported under the current legislation. What can't be exported is a non-functioning but no longer intact electronic device. The principal problem being, the non-functioning electronic device is at high risk of being disassembled in some far away e-waste dumping ground. The Canadian government's use of a unique interpretation of the Basel Convention obligations "intact" and "not intact" opens the door to uncontrolled e-waste exports as long as the device is intact. See Canadian fact sheet and associated links.[23]
Since Canada ratified the Basel Convention on August 28, 1992, and as of August 2011, Environment Canada's Enforcement Branch has initiated 176 investigations for violations under EIHWHRMR, some of which are still in progress. There have been 19 prosecutions undertaken for non-compliance with the provisions of the EIHWHRMR some of which are still before the courts.
United States[edit]
Electronic waste has been on the agenda of the Australian Federal Government since the mid-1990s. The Australian and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council (now replaced by the Environment Protection and Heritage Council (EPHC)) was the first body to identify electrical and electronic waste as a concern. In 2002, the EPHC again declared that e-waste needed action. The Electrical Equipment Product Stewardship Sub-Group examined the issue and decided that computer and television waste were 'wastes of concern'. Since that time the television and computer industry has been working with the EPHC to identify a suitable way to manage end-of-life televisions and computers.
In November 2008 the EPHC committed to the development of a national solution to the issue of managing television and computer waste.[24] This action culminated in the release of a package of documents designed to enable public consultation on the various options for managing end-of-life televisions and computers on 16 July 2009.[25] The main document in the package is the Consultation Regulatory Impact Statement: Televisions and Computers. The paper canvasses various options for managing end-of-life units and analyses the costs and benefits of each. The Consultation Paper does not have a preferred option. The preferred option will be developed by government through the public consultation process prior to the next meeting of the EPHC on 5 November 2009 in Perth where State and Federal Minister will adopt a position.[26]
A series of public meetings were held in Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Melbourne to receive feedback to the government's proposals. The meetings occurred in late July and early August 2009.
However, after the analog TV switch off, no plan seemed agreed on, and most analog TV's ended up in bins or discarded on the sidewalk. Many such tv's had the copper deflection coils removed by unknown persons while sitting on streets, presumably for copper's recycle price. As such it appears Australia is interested in talking about environmental issues, but not committed to a solution if there are no business advantages to it.
- Product stewardship
Product Stewardship Australia (PSA)[27] is a not-for-profit organisation established by the television industry to lead the way in developing recycling programs for e-waste in Australia, particularly televisions. PSA works closely with both state and federal governments along with other industry associations to advance product stewardship in Australia. PSA has contributed to the development of the Consultation Regulatory Impact Statement on Televisions and Computers.[citation needed]

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Our take on the TiVo® Mini by Steve Kindig Watch recorded shows, live TV and web entertainment on another TV in the house The TiVo Mini lets you enjoy recorded shows and web entertainment on another TV. The subscription for the Mini costs $5.99/month. The TiVo Mini is great news for owners of TiVo's latest 4-tuner DVRs, like the Premiere 4 or Premiere Elite XL4. It lets you enjoy all the entertainment from your TiVo DVR in another room through your home network without buying another DVR. As you'd expect from a TiVo product, you can watch live TV and recorded shows, with functions like pause, fast forward and rewind. You can even start watching a show in one room and finish it in another. Wired for entertainment To stream live or recorded material to the Mini, connect your Premiere 4 or Premiere Elite XL4 to the Internet using either a Ethernet cable or Ethernet over coax cable (MoCA). If you're currently using a Wi-Fi® adapter with your Premiere 4/XL4 you won't be able to stream to the Mini. Wi-Fi and Powerline networking aren't fast enough to provide reliable streaming of high-def shows. You need to use a wired Ethernet or MoCA connection. If you go with MoCA, you'll also need two MoCA Network Adapters: one that connects to your home network and one that connects to your DVR. See "What is MoCA" below. Setup requires only a couple steps. To stream content to the Mini it has to be on the same network your TiVo DVR is. For starters, make sure your TiVo Premiere 4/XL4 is hooked up to both a cable connection and to your wired/wireless router. Another option is to connect the TiVo Mini directly to your TiVo DVR via Ethernet cable (using a single cable or through the router). After that, just hook the TiVo Mini up to your HDTV via HDMI. That famously great TiVo interface Why would you choose the Mini over competing streaming video devices? TiVo owners know — the TiVo onscreen interface is unbelievably smart and intuitive. It's optimized both for finding the stuff you know you want to watch, and for discovering new shows that match your interests. With the Mini connected to a TV you can access movies and shows from services like Hulu Plus and YouTube (but not Netflix or Amazon Instant at this time). You can also tap into music from Pandora Internet radio and Spotify. What is MoCA? MoCA (pronounced "mocha," like the chocolate coffee drink) stands for Multimedia over Coax. It's a great networking option if you can't easily make a wired Ethernet connection. MoCA delivers the same high-speed network connection you get with an Ethernet cable, and delivers it through your existing coax cable (the wire you use to receive cable TV) to any room in your home. When you set up a MoCA adapter in your home, your TiVo DVR will receive cable TV and connect to your home network through your existing coax cable.

The TiVo Mini conveniently allows you to enjoy all the entertainment from your TiVo Premiere 4 DVR (592PREM4, sold separately) or Premiere Elite XL4 DVR (592PREMEL, sold separately) on another TV, in another room through your home network. Watch live TV and recorded shows from your 4-tuner TiVo DVR. Pause, fast forward, and rewind live TV and recordings. Access movies and music from Hulu Plus, YouTube, Pandora, Spotify, and more. Schedule recordings, WishList searches, and Season Pass recording. Start a show in one room and finish it in another. Note: The TiVo Mini does not have a tuner or hard drive, and does not need a CableCARD. The TiVo Mini does require the use of a dedicated tuner on your 4-tuner DVR to stream live TV. The Mini does not work with TiVo Premiere or Premiere XL. Additional $5.99/month subscription is required for TiVo Mini service. Ethernet or MoCA Setup: The TiVo Mini must connect to your home network through a wired Ethernet or MoCA connection. Ethernet: To use this connection method, simply plug an Ethernet cable connected to your home network into your TiVo Mini. MoCA: A MoCA connection is a great option if you don't have easy access to a wired Ethernet cable. MoCA, which stands for Multimedia over Coax, delivers the same high-speed network connection you get through an Ethernet cable, but delivers it through your existing coax wire (the wire you use to receive cable TV). HDMI Output: The TiVo Mini connects to your secondary TV via HDMI (6' HDMI cable included). The Mini's HDMI output supports up to 1080p video and multichannel audio. There is also a 3.5mm component video and composite video output (available from TiVo.com). Remote Control: The TiVo Mini includes an IR remote control for wireless operation of the unit. Some buttons on the TiVo remote are programmable. You have options to control power, volume, mute and input selection on your TV. The TiVo Remote App cannot control the TiVo Mini.
