I have found out about really good deals on hr-24 dvr receivers on amazon. Just a heads up i think the price for it was around the 200 dollar mark yesterday. Now today it is only $109.99. Just thought i would let everyone here know. I pulled the trigger on one at that price. Just remember if you buy one you are still leasing the unit and it will restart a 24 month commitment.
Good deal on directv hr-24 dvr receivers right now on amazon.com

Im gonna pull the trigger on two of these.. Too good to pass up, and might as well do it now while I'm still less than a month in so the restart makes no difference.. Gonna get HDTVs for the SD rooms soon anyway so half price and six total DVR tuners looks sweet.. 
Now I can't find the thread I saw it in, but I read somewhere there is some kind of issue using multiple DVR's on MRV? I think it may have been the inability to schedule a remote DVR program from another DVR? Is that the only issue (if it's what I'm thinking of)? I can still stream a recorded program from one DVR to another, right?

I have a pair of HR24s on MRV. You are correct. The only issue is not being able to set a recording on DVR#1 from DVR#2. You can watch recorded programming from either, regardless of which one physically recorded it.
Looks like $99+Shipping: Amazon.com: Used and New: DIRECTV Plus® HR24 High Definition MPEG-4 DVR (HR-24-500) HD DVR
I was going to bite, but I noticed it's a -500 version, which has had issues with the AM21 module, which I must have...
There is a 100 and 700 version too. However, it looks like they are all flying off the shelves. The -500s are gone, and it says only 10 left and 4 left of the -100 and -700! Just search HR24 on there.
They were all working out to $109-ish. The one I ordered (now sold out) was $109/free shipping. That one is $99/$9 shipping, and there's another that's $95/$14 shipping.
Hope everyone is keeping clear the distinction between DVR and Non-DVR ... The thread title says HR-24 DVR, but the link posted above is for the H24, the Non-DVR...
That's very odd.. The item at the link seems to have changed, because they definitely went to the HR24-500 before. That's what my receipt says too (notice it says 2x, and the order total is $219.98, so they were definitely $109.99 ea). If I click on the link in my receipt, it goes to the H24 too. If I get H24's I'll be really pissed. Neoabacus, you're going to want to cancel that order because it's not the DVR.

How odd, it was a link to the HR-24-500 as the URL title appears when I posted it.....I wonder if Amazon sold out and set up a redirect? But yes, please note the link is now for the HD receiver, not the HD DVR........
It appears that's exactly what they did. If you search HR24, they're now $169 from a different vendor than last night.

Dude, that says HR-24 and is a picture of the HR-24, they sure as heck better send you some HR-24s.

I know there is a thread for this but I have 2 500's both with AM21s and have had zero issues.
Now if you go to thier site they have HR24's for OVER $ 300, I don't have any idea whats up with that ....
My order hasn't been canceled as of yet but still shows as "Shipping Soon", so we'll see what happens..
