TiVo's running what appears to be an in-house only item sale to raise money for two charities: The Katrina Fund and the James Kim Family Trust Fund. While James Kim did not work directly with TiVo, he was featured in many of the CNET's TiVoCast episodes.
TiVo's selling TiVo Snow Globes and TiVo toasters to employees for $28 and $45 respectively. With each toaster purchase, Tivo will donate $9 to The Katrina Fund, and for each Snow Globe, $5 will go to the James Kim Family Trust Fund.
While these deals aren't open to the public, there's nothing preventing you from making your own donations to these charities. And perhaps that nifty toaster will show up on the TiVo rewards page sometime in the future.
1. Tivo employees should buy them and resell them on ebay promising to give the money to whichever charity
