DirecTivo HD is an option, and then various Tivo hacks to get the 
video out the back door if you need a perm copy.  I've been noting
the ATA-over-ethernet progress and adapters that interface a standard
SATA or PATA drive over ethernet and wondering about a reverse 
adapter that plugs in where the drive would and remotes it over
ethernet.  A handy way to export a non-cooperating filesystem to 
a server where you can pick through it for the bits ? :)
