    Ditched the DVR

    We have a pretty good system over here in College Station/Bryan ;) I too hope TW buys out cox because their lineup in waco (our main dma) has a very impressive HD lineup. Hopefully after our rebuild is complete (hope the possible sale didnt screw with the timing on the rebuild but since it...

    Problems with the COX HDTV DVR

    Ive had 2 missed recording on my 6412 but overall its been a fine machine for me. You want something painful to use, try any tivo. God those things are slow as molasses (even if they have all the extra features).

    Id love to seem Dish drop their crappy hardware and get voom's equipment.... that networkable dvr with dish would be sweet and Dish is going to need their own system to counter the D* networkable dvr.

    Cuban and Voom -- Why Cuban is happy to see Voom go bye-bye?

    Very True.... I recently subed to local cable co and they have InHD.... IMO they have far better content than HDnet today. Back in the day when HDnet got the good sports to show they were great but they have shown they have no intention of cometing on the big stage (not getting the mlb games...

    Just Ordered Cox HD DVR

    Just Ordered Cox HD DVR
