Pavtube iPad Tivo hd files converter-enjoy TiVo files on iPad&iPad Wi-Fi +3G
Ever since the release of iPad, the new ‘big guy’ has been the hottest product. Screen of iPad is so good, multi-touch is amazing and colors are so vibrant that working on boring tasks also becomes enjoyable. According to Apple, iPad gives up to 10 hours of surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music. By any means, it is a great portable video player. So why not transfer you TiVo recordings to iPad? No matter where you are, whenever it is, just take out the iPad from your handbag and enjoy your favorite TV programs or football matches freely! Nice idea, isn’t it? In the following guide I would like to share with you how to get your TiVo recordings ready for iPad (iPad Wi-Fi +3G).
