TiVo Stream ships Sept. 6

Eric Abent for SlashGear:

TiVo has finally given a release date for its incoming Steam [sic] transcoder, which was unveiled back in May. Pre-orders opened up for a select few yesterday, and the company says that the device will be arriving on September 6. When it launches, it will set you back $129.99, which doesn’t seem to bad for what it does.

The TiVo Stream is a hardware device that lets you stream or upload content from your TiVo DVR to an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad.

There are other ways to get content from TiVo to iOS if you’re so inclined. I’ve used Roxio Toast 11 Titanium with my TiVo, for example: it includes a TiVo transcoding app for the Mac which converts TiVo content to something you can watch on your Mac or sync to iOS using iTunes. But this seems like a pretty simple alternative for TiVo users who don’t want to futz around with intermediate steps.
