Major software update for FiOS DVR in the works
Verizon FiOS currently has a major software update in the works for its Motorola QIP6412 HDTV DVRs. Although little is known about the software, it is said to offer significant improvements in both usability and functionality.
The software update is slated for trial in one or two markets in November/December, with the rest to follow in 1Q 2007.
No word yet on whether this update will be a new version of the MSFE software currently used on FiOS DVRs, or whether it will be something entirely new. Expect a formal announcement from Verizon in the October/November timeframe.
