Check out the 2nd post on  Twitterific on my iPhone.  Who new?  Thanks, Andy!!  I shot this pic and uploaded to Vox using the Shozu app on the phone.  This is one feature I loved from from when my phone what jailbroken.  I'm glad it's back.

Dvrscheduler

Finally we have a cool Tivo extra for Directv customers instead of the standalone Tivo Series 2 owners.  Directv's DVR Scheduler allows you to search listings and tell your DVR at home to record a program while you are away from home via your mobile phone.  It's great, especially on the iPhone!  The site is easy to use and uses your Directv online account to schedule recordings  anywhere, anytime.  I was sooo tired of hearing about cool networking features for Tivo Series 2 owners (e.g. Tivo2Go)  only to find out that Directv customers can just forget about it. 

Check it out at http://m.directv.com.
