No but one can hack it in there if they want.

Is there a 6.2 version of that page? I'm guessing that if I did this
then it would roll back my 6.2 software to 4.0 and if I allowed it to do
a software update then I'd lose the hacks :-(

Do you actually want 'TiVo to go' or do you want to be able to download
shows off of your TiVo? 'TiVo to go' is _very_ slow compared to just
hacking your box to enable the use of the network which would allow you to
download shows.

I do not believe DirecTV will ever give you the capability of having a
supported 'TiVo to go' feature.

That hack turns off updates but yes you would be downgraded to 4. Since
DTV never had 4 you might find it has enough of what you want EXCEPT
the speed up menus

The hacks preclude your Tivo from upgrading.

Yes, I know. That's why I said "allowed" :-)

What I meant was that if I _wanted_ to have 6.2 (ie remove the
softwareupgrade=false parameter) then it would remove all the hacks as
well and I'd end up with a generic 6.2 system again.
