Tivo popups on their way?

There has been much talk lately of Tivo showing popup ads while you are fast forwarding through commercials. That of course would defeat the reason you are fast forwarding through commercials. There is also talk of popup ads during regular television.

PVRBlog has a post with screenshots (literally photos of the TV) describing the issue as well as possible workarounds which would improve the experience (as it is now, they are very invasive).

Keep in mind not everyone is seeing these ads - I have a Tivo, I love it, and don't see the ads. And I hope I never do.
So they are in some sort of "random" beta stage at this point.
