    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    not if I have anything to do with it ;) I work for Cox cable, cable has some good stuff coming down the pipe I just hope we can move faster than we traditionally do... I'm in an Adelphia area (just moved from Comcast area) so I'm using Dish for now, had Voom for the HD that Comcast...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I wonder if by some huge coincidence it was added during my install, but I could've sworn when i first turned it on I didn't have it, but then I looked about 20 minutes later when my box had been completely activated - unlocking the premium channels, I noticed it was there.

    Direct TV Salesman at Best Buy Laments VOOM leaving

    A lot of folks love/hate Bose, but my goodness, I just can't stand the sound. I agree with the folks who blast it, for a lot less money I can get a more dynamic sound (or at least a sound that I prefer).

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    Update: Got Comcast installed on Saturday morning, happened to be watching Real Madrid vs Valencia (man, I'm going to miss this, KungFu, and Monsters) and the guy asks, "What is this??". He was from Africa and seemed to be a big soccer fan so stood there watching for almost 5 minutes before we...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I had the digital cable with HD before Voom, while it was ok, at the time it did not have WB or ABC in HD, which drove me nuts for Monday night football, and my wife nuts for her WB shows. I didn't have any premiums so my HD channel number was about 5. It's been almost a year since I've had...

    Can VERIZON be our knight in shinning armour??

    these new higher speeds are kinda funny. The average user only needs about 128 symmetrical or so with tweaked settings for webpage viewing, and a temporary large bandwidth and large burst settings for downloads. I think variable bandwidth rates is really the best way for cable or any of these...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    You could run both TVs from one box, but depending where the box is, you'd need an RF remote to be able to change the channels, say if you were in your bedroom and the box is downstairs, and you would be changing the channels on both TVs. Plus you'd need a way to run the cable from the box to...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    They still feed the analog portion without the digital box, so you should be able to get the analog feed (obviously less channels) if you don't feel like using a box. This is generally what I do for all my "secondary" TVs, I usually give the main HD TV the best feed, with an SD box for my...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    Your monthly programming will be $25 less for 16 months. Here they are just asking for April's bill from your dish company.

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    LOL, that's what I was thinking might happen. A lot of time the installers could care less. Well, it's good news to hear others are getting the deal already, I went with Platinum, solely because of the $400/16, saving $25 a month seemed like it was the most worth it to get the highest...

    New Comcast commercial, Voom included

    I was on my drive home today and Comcast actually has a commercial about Voom going away and is including us in their ditch the dish get $400 deal. It was kinda funny because it started out as, "1 out of the top 3 satellite providers is closing their doors at the end of the month, but don't...

    The definition of "Voom"

    Trillian uses the wikipedia, I find myself reading all the linked words when I'm chatting on AIM, MSN, or Yahoo. I find it interesting the wide ranges of definitions, it's quite informative ;)

    Voom promises of 50 channels, price reduction, etc

    mod. edit Anyway, I'm tempted to do the upgrade but I currently have a house for sale, I think my best option is to cancel while I live in an apartment for a couple months, then move to the new house and sign up again. Can someone clear up what the actual cost is if you change pricing plans...

    Some good/bad News (Depending how you want to take it)

    I'll miss MonstersHD A LOT, and KungFu HD was promising, here's hoping at least Monsters ends up somewhere else, and where it lands, is where I'll probably go. If nothing, I'll go to Comcast, but I'm staying till the end as well...
