Release date is pushed back again!!

I have been reading these postings for a while and finally decided to jump in.
I have a friend working in GoodGuys Concord. I just talk to him and the shipment is postponed one more time until 04/19 they will have in the stores by 4/20-4/21, but short on shipments and if you did not preorder or if you do not have a friend working in one of the stores :D you are screwed until next month.
Also to reconfirm I think SolidSignal.com has it at the same date as well as pdf of user manual, which is pretty cool, you can see what features are added as well as what comes in the box.

Release Dat is Pushed Back Again

For those who pre-ordered from Value Electronics and are in the first 175 or so pre-orders the latest release date posted is 4/15 or 16. This is only the latest of several delays--we'll see what happens on Thursday or Friday! :confused:
 
Circuit City HD TIVO

I was at Circuit City in Flint, MI. yesterday and the D* rep was there and said that CC and BB would both be getting shipments of the initial orders of HDTIVO units when they are released next week. He said he saw that in writing.
 
The latest word is ValueElectronics shipping on Wednesday

OK, over in one of the worlds longest threads, http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?postid=1856352#post1856352

The latest status from Robert is:

Well, guess what...

WE'RE SHIPPING HR10-250's TOMORROW MORNING!!! THIS IS FOR REAL!

Thank you everyone for all of your faith in me. No way would I let you down.

Everyone up to #175 will ship tomorrow, lots more to come in 1-2 weeks or less. That's all I know for now. We expedited the in-bound shipping and every order up to #175 will ship tomorrow.

Pictures on Doug's site tomorrow, HD DVR's in your hands Thursday.


Let's hope this happens this time! If the current schedule holds I'll have mine in a couple of weeks :D :D :D
 
Delay again hope everyone is not pissed as much as I am

Couple of sources:
1. GoodGuys friend just told me from their system the shipment will not be there until 28th of April
2. SolidSignal.com has this to say
Per our latest conversation with Hughes, they have announced a further delay in shipment of the HR10-250. Hughes predicts this unexpected delay to extend no further than May 1, 2003. While information from Hughes is sparse, we have been able to gather some pertinent information with regards to the initial shipment: (1) Production of the HR10-250 was not as steadfast as initially planned (2) Expected initial delivery quantities may not be met.
We will post any further creditable information from Hughes as it becomes available.
:mad:

Those of us who pre-ordered (first 175 or so) have received our UPS tracking #s from Value Electronics.

Got my tracking # today and due for delivery on 5/4, but the last two digits of my zip got transposed, I hope they (UPS) are smart enough to figure it out and get it to me on the right day!
