My experiences are similar, I really like the Toast interface which is easy to use.
I think the sloooooow transfer speeds are a function of the TiVo software's USB functionality. Did I state that right? Someone told me that the software in TiVo drives the USB at speeds of USB-1 and not USB-2 -- I heard a software revision on TiVo's part would drive them at USB-2. Is this true? I never verified it. I have a TiVo Series 3 HD and a TiVo Series 2 on the network via ethenet, neither are wireless, both have really slow transfer speeds.
I don't recall seeing a way to get programs that have been offloaded from the TiVo back to the TiVo from the Mac though if you want to watch them again. Did I miss something on how to do this.
