Unprecedented demand causes backlog in DirecTV-TiVo devices
After years of lukewarm demand, the elves at satellite television provider DirecTV are suddenly scrambling to fill holiday orders for its TiVo-based set-top boxes.
Some shoppers are finding they have to wait weeks before getting their digital video recording satellite receivers as ``unprecedented demand'' has led to supply shortages at various stores, DirecTV spokesman Bob Marsocci said Wednesday.
