    If I'm dreaming...

    ...It sounds to a degree like you guys left your mother and replaced her with a wife that takes up the same kind of "you need my approval to do *****". Oh my gosh, I would walk out in a heartbeat if my wife ever started that crap with me - and vice versa. Please tell me I'm taking it the wrong...

    Voom chases off another customer.

    ...proper exposure for the Voom sat - west is the best I can do. So for me it's OTA HD (my HTPC is an OTA HD PVR), Adelphia HD (they have a HD PVR), D* or E*, just need to make up my mind which one is the best choice. I will miss this forum, it was a lot of fun for a few months. Good luck...

    OT: WIfe and I had an arguement about HD

    Ok, I'll chime in...I have a small 26" Samsung HDTV with HD OTA Tuner in my bedroom. An InFocus X1 for the living room/theater set up. And a Panny 32" HDTV for my girlfriends house (couldn't stand going there to watch a movie in SD - had to buy her a HDTV set). I'm currently in the midst of...

    I have now fallen victim to VOOM billing issues.

    ...company charges me for a month in advance. They've been doing that for years. What's the big deal? They do however, issue credits much faster than V*. They actually show up on the next bill. Now that I'm in bed with V*, I am concerned about cancelling, but yeah, I'll do it the same way -...

    VOOM & TIVO...???

    Concrete*, I must disagree to a degree. I would never have bought a tivo until they started to get integrated with DVD burners. That made me make the jump from a cable supplied DVR (previously E* PVR) to Tivo. I can see the value in a DVR, but without the abilitiy to burn to DVD it is not...

    Tivo Conversion

    ...waterline when it comes to the state of the art timeshifting or recording HD KNOWS that the only solutions are DVHS tapes (recording only) ; the D* HD Tivo; and any cable HD DVR solution (there is the fourth if you consider the ability to make a PC into an HD recorder - but that is stretching...

    Tivo Conversion

    did it last night myself...i'm playing back a HD Rave concert that I recorded this morning and burned to disk. looks not too shabby when played back on my X1...surely not HD, but certainly better than I get over my cable...

    OT::How much do you spend on technology?

    I thought this migh tbe a bit of a wake up call and perhaps a bit fun too. Consider cable, DBS, internet access and cell phones or blackberry devices, what do you spend a month on these technologies. Here's my line up: 1. Cell phone - $115 (heavily used for work aprox. 2000 primetime mins a...

    Hey! I'm not leaving!

    This is so cool. I did not think the response to this thread would be so high! Even Sean Mota chimed in!! Glad to see we "happy" VOom customers have a collective voice! -GT

    Hey! I'm not leaving!

    ...with the SD pic quality :) Yes, I am pleased that the stuttering went away with the last software update :mad: No, I will never go to D* or E* again :yes Yes, I will seriously entertain going to the wholehouse solution when the time comes :( No, I wish Voom had a few...

    Component video switch box

    For not too much dough (and 30 bucks off retail from one online retailer), the Audio Authority Component switcher model AA1154A is a fantastic deal. It switches in auto mode or manual mode four componment inputs, coax digital audio input, optical digital audio input and analog audio. I really...

    Voom intends to become a major player

    The one month (sometimes more) lead time is for printed monthly magazines. NYTimes daily should not have a lead time that long. Like WASCH wrote...it's more like they wrote it weeks ago and banked it for future use.

    has anybody recorded in hd from voom

    What about the Holo3DGraph? It's about $1100 but you'll have virtually unlimited storage space (hard disks). Sounds good on paper, anyone have any experience with it? EDIT: just read the FAQ on their site, and it is as limited as I had feared. Only supports 480i/576i, 3rd party apps for...

    It's funny but true...

    I also enjoy Moov! It's a wonderful for technology demonstration. I usually leave it on in the background while I mix my own music. When i have friends over, they see the Moov channel and usually they get all excited once they see it. It's not so much the movie channels that turn them on, it's...

    UPDATE FROM WILT ON PQ ISSUES

    I would venture to say that perhaps Sean won't be changing his sig now ;-P At least I hope so, I'd hate to see him go. I think that as time goes on and the subscriber base increases, that Voom will reach a critical mass where the kind of "personal" service we're seeing from Wilt will be...

    Moov-HD Website

    the thread is getting lost...but I have to say for now I'll take Moov as at least another hi def channel. I'd be fine to give it up for say, HDnet or HDmovies or some other HD channel that we dont have now. The ice cream melting was very cool. I do have a number of hot female friends that look...

    South Florida Voom Zone!!!

    Hey truqui, That Mitsu is a _very_ nice set. I have an InFocus X1 projected on to a DIY screen and frame at around 7.5 feet diagonal screen size, the main viewing area is about 13 feet back. The X1 does not have the image your Mitsu has but it works for me. Good luck turning your friends...
