How's the temp on this box?

My statement was just posted for Feb - Mar...there's no change... What gives?

Just tell them you have three TVs to hookup...

There's a HUGE benefit to this though. If one receiver/HDD dies, you still have copies of your DVR'd events. I actually have that setup, and consider it a benefit.

I don't live in the city either. He did not specify WHERE he lived. Just adding some substance to this thread, which is more than I can say for some...;)

I get it. I get it. You prefer D*. I was making sure he got all the info on the receivers. I'm a "glass half full" kind of guy...

I was simply pointing out that the limitation is NOT necessarily the receiver's limitation. If you can't get OTA, then that's one thing. BTW, antennas can be attic mounted AND you get the best possible picture available, IMO...

Two VIP722K's would allow you to record up to 8 programs (with the OTA module). No?

I think he's referring to filling it up rapidly. I suggest you invest in a couple of drive docks (Thermaltake or Rosewill). Then buy a couple of SATA drives (1TB). You can have a drive on each and move those back and forth between receivers w/o having to plug/unplug from the USB port. In...

I, like everyone else (besides the OP), think you are full of hot air. You make insinuations about why a device is not available that, by the way, hasn't really been announced all that long. Then throw out you want a "HD DVR" because E* is no longer selling them. You then state you will go to...

I added HBO the other day (free 3mo deal). Here's my new bill..WOW! Is this right? Service Date(s) Detailed Activity Previous Balance $105.11 Aug 11 Credit Card Payment...

I wouldn't speculate on what their software does or how exactly it functions, but from my own experience, MY code can do function differently based on different equipment SOMETIMES. Not sure that's the case here, but just a small bit of info for you.

I think you are assuming there are a lot of Tivo-fanboys out there. Most people I know think the whole Tivo and it's over-inflated monthly fees for the "right" to record TV without providing much else has been exposed as a scam. Don't get me wrong, I like the "trick play" function, but I watch...

This is where we differ on what a patent should protect. It appears they did exactly what E* is attempting to do. Find a cheaper/better alternative to an existing product. Anyway, as I said, we won't agree on it, but at least we managed to stay civil about it. I can't say that's been the...

I mispoke on the input source. For that, I apologize. Shows my arrogance or lack of knowledge (or both) on a Tivo itself. As for the rest of your post, no matter the cost, the technology was already created.
