    If I'm dreaming...

    Not to get too off topic, but I am amazed by some of the comments in this thread. I've been married for seven years. My relationship with my wife is incredibly strong, mutually supportive and non combative, especially in comparison when i read threads like this. In seven years I think we've...

    Voom chases off another customer.

    I also just cancelled today, but not due to bad service or microstutter or lack of content. I have had a very pleasurable experience with Voom. Unfortunately, we do not have the 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)...

    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.

    My cable 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...

    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

    Really Choochie, the issue is not dead and you are wrong. I'll say it again just for you: tivo does work with Voom. Anyone with their head above the waterline when it comes to the state of the art timeshifting or recording HD KNOWS that the only solutions are DVHS tapes (recording only) ...

    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!

    For all those posters that say they're leaving, I wish you luck. I thought I'd start a post that states I am not leaving - all in good fun of course. :( No, I am not especially pleased with the SD pic quality :) Yes, I am pleased that the stuttering went away with the last software...

    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...
