From Microsoft Partners with Tivo:

Microsoft Chairman and Founder Bill Gates announced during his keynote address tonight at the Consumer Electronics Show that the two companies have embarked on a collaborative effort designed to allow consumers to take digital entertainment with them on portable devices.

Gates demonstrated how television programs stored on a TiVo® box can be transferred to a Windows XP PC for playback on Windows Mobile devices, including Portable Media Centers, and media-capable Pocket PCs and Smart phones.

I understood that TivoToGo used Media Player 10, but I was thrilled to see that you will now be able to transfer programs to Portable Media Centers, Pocket PCs and Smartphones Thanks Tivo for being a partner. One thing I always remember while working at Microsoft, one group’s competition just may be another group’s finest partner.
