What now with Voom gone? As a family we have decided to take full advantage of the fine upgraded OTA antenna that Voom provided. WE have an "all you can rent deal" with Hollywood Video, so we'll watch only what we are willing to get off our asses for. Maybe we spend more time on other...

I think I can speak for many people here when I say, you're not out of luck. Worst case, When the May, june and July bills come, don't pay em. But I'm pretty sure that voom won't even send you a bill. At least if it was my company, that is how I would handle it.

Hope I don't accidentally put the broken widget that needs to go to acme service, in the Voom container and the Voom STB in the Acme box. Iaccidently did that once before when a company sent me copier toner, and tried to bill me way too much, they asked me to return the toner. But somehow...

All that jerkin, got you -- and every other voomer-- an extra month of service. that jerkin gave us all something to discuss and debate. All the jerkin, provided more insight and detail into the workings of big business. That jerkin gave us an opportunity to analyze all the other DBS's...

Actually, Voom could contract directly with the Canadian company to do the collection, and refurbishment, saying for each box you collect agree to pay us $67.68 or some other dollar amount. The Canadian Company would collect as many as possible and do the refurb, and save maybe $200 each over...

Input on amps I believe all amps have at least 1 input.

Good Voom Installers I also have had good luck with our installer in Las Vegas. Two guys, tht were on time professional, courteous, gave me some insight into what they were doing. I also have some OTA issues that I have a scheduled appointment for. We'll see if they do as well. My OTA signal...

Voom Ipod?? If voom is going to be a delivery provider Voom can't compete being the accessory service, they have to be the core service. Although I love HD, I don't think HDNEWS satisfy my need for news, And there are many valuable channels on SD. Although I may not watch many, I can't call...

And Finally. . . Here in las vegas, Walmart is offering a Cheap Wireless Cable for 25-30 month, you get a short list of stations including 1 HBO, if all you want is cheap cable, that might be an option, or even better, now that you have an OTA antennae you can just buy a digital converter and...

And another thing. . . When did we all get an addiction to any one channel? Before NFL ticket, were people keeling over in the streets and we just didn't know the reason? And now Sunday ticket is the cure, more people are living longer lives due to this breakthrough in Medicine? . . .Or...

Tiering of services Some one in this thread state that they would like a package that included just Voom 21, and all the other non premium HD channels in a stand alone package. And would be willing to pay a fair price for it. Well would $50 a month be fair? 'cause that is what you got with...

There is always the original option, which has some appealing aspects, like SHD (super high definition) and Sensoround and better than just 5.1, 53000.1 sound. You could just opt for season tickets for the Lakers and Angels.

I was installed on the 1st I didn't check, but since I was installed March First, and I couldn't touch the boxes for an hour for the update, I'm assuming the latest, but I'm not at home to verify.

All three boxes started out this way. If I flipped through local OTA, the picture would go away. On my main box, it would freeze on that channel, couldn't even turn it off with the remote, on the kids box the audio would comethrough, and you could change channels, but the picture was gone for...
