Tivo working with Cable Providers to allow Tivo users to watch on demand services?

[Tivoman44]

I just took the survey that Tivo sends out regularly and they said they were working on this, Loadstar, and others, have you heard of this?  How would this work, I thought the Tuning adapter doesn't allow on demand, or is their such thing as a two way cable card?  Unfortunately Tivo mentioned Charter, Cox, Comcast, no mention of TWC doing anything?  Any news of TWC talking to the NFL during the lockout about getting the network?

When Charter comes out with their TiVo version in the next few months they will also flip on the switch to offer VOD services to those who purchased TiVo's also; Cox and RCN customers also have VOD on purchased TiVo's. The CableCard standard does allow for two-way communication, even with a tuning adapter.
