    $0 upfront program

    Yes you can get more than one receiver with 0 upfront. I just did. I had 2 receivers installed. While I haven't been billed yet, I'm told the cost will be 39.95 for the basic package, 9.95 per month for each receiver and 5.00 per month for a multiple receiver setup. Approximately 65.00 per...

    What to do?

    I'm new to this forum and would like to say hi to all. I've not yet ordered Voom (still with *TV). If a pvr is due to come out in '04, would it be smarter to order Voom with the 0 down plan rather than to purchase a 2 receiver setup? I'm assuming the receivers would become obsolete when the...
