Why would one use dialup for a TiVo. My TiVo has never touched a
telephone line ever. When I bought it I hacked it to work over my cable
modem link using PPP to my workstation and have never risked loosing the
internal hardware.

Probably with similar laws of electricity that allows car spark plugs to
operate in excess of 50K volts when the battery only supplies 12volts,
or that allow flourescent lights to run at a few k volts while the wall
puts out 110 or 220.
