    FIOS TV: this could be a prime space to market V21, Mr Dolan...

    For what it is worth I was picking the brain of one of the Verizon Tech's when they were out troubleshooting a DSL problem I had 2 weeks ago. They have run the Fiber Optic cable to the CO and will be running the branches this summer. The will be offering internet service right away but from what...

    So now that voOm looks like its going to survive what does it need to change?

    1:Multiple tuner HD DVR 2:Home networking 3:Self installs 4:More variety in HD content. 5:Better advertising in stores. (It looks like Direct pays sears to hide Voom display's in a corner) If I see 1 and 2 I will subscribe.

    Proposed SAT Locations

    Just saw an advertisment on local TV with Direct talking about more HD content and new birds. Does anybody know the longitude location of the SAT's and the content they will carry. The current 110 sat is blocked by tree's. I have clear line of sight from 60 to 90 degrees west longitude. I was...

    The End of VOOM?

    Voom Lack of Advertising I don't know about other areas but in the NY/NJ metro area you were hard pressed to se a display in the store or advertisements. I did see one display in a local sears store it was tucked in a corner, the tv was a 34" rica that looked like it was previously a security...

    The DVR info we DIDN'T get

    I think Sean is asking for a lot (6 DVR's). I would be happy if they actually have one DVR available in March for an existing Voom customer. Wireless networking or coax would be the least labor intensive. But after reading the installer nightmare threads I doubt they would be able spend the time...

    Voom Ces Dvr Demo Now Online!

    Thank You Scott, Great Job. He did say March but did not say what year. I am still apprehensive, I will believe it when I see it available on their website. I currently had the SA 8300 DVR for cable installed that has dual tuners, functions similar to the voom dvr minus the networking and...

    Will VOOM HD PVR be able to capture and playback DD5.1 sound track

    Getting a cablevision dual tuner DVR installed this weekend I will let you know if it supports DD5.1. If Voom does not include DD5.1 in their released DVR then that is probably a direct indicator that they are not serious about being the ultimate HD content provider.

    Will Voom Show a real DVR tomorrow at CES 2005? Yes!

    This will be the only way Voom will be able to jump ahead of the competition. When first mentioning the DVR and whole home network they mentioned the originator of the technology. That was a year ago. If they don't release both the DVR and whole house networking by march or sooner they will be a...

    Disgruntled VOOM Employee

    Corporate america Welcome to corporate america. The top managers just care about the beans and how to maximize their bonus. Most of the time they have no idea about the product or service they sell and support. You no longer have managers that worked their way up the ladder, a person like this...

    North Jersey Voom Users (bergen county)

    Are there any Voom users in north Jersey. I would like your feed back on quality of service and installation. I personally am waiting to see the release of the DVR and home networking services. Direct TV not an option due to tree's. Tired of cable dragging their feet. Thanks in advance
