Oh, you asked if our new service could scale. I thought you asked if it could stall.

TiVo announced nearly a month ago new services that include movie tickets from Fandango, shared photo slide shows, weather and traffic information from Yahoo!, and Internet radio shows and podcasts. They'll be free to TiVo subscribers, who already either pay a monthly fee of $13 or have purchased a lifetime subscription.

But many people won't see the new features for another two months, according to a company spokesman, who called the distribution of software updates a "progressive rollout."

Especially eager TiVo owners can attempt to expedite their machine's download of the software by going to a page on the TiVo.com site called "software priority request," but the new functions may still not arrive for several weeks.
