He must not have the protection plan. If it's a leased unit, without the protection plan, the customer has to pay ~$15 for shipping only. With the protection plan, it's $0 out-of-pocket.
New Joeys are made in India--not China

That is what I am thinking. I never had to pay for my owner or leased VIP722k. I have always had the Protection Plan is the only thing I can think of.
Leased receiver:
w/o protection plan: $15 for shipping
with protection plan: $0
Purchased receiver:
w/o protection plan (and out of 1 year receiver warranty): $75 for receiver and $15 for shipping, total of $90
with protection plan: $0
I'm curious about the upcoming wireless Joey. Both of my Joeys have been wireless via the usb adapter for a long time and I have never had any issues. What is different about the so called wireless Joey ? In fact, I have had the two Joeys which are on 5.8ghz and two Roku on 2.4ghz all going at once with no bandwidth issues.
The Joey I bought from Amazon last March was made in India.

The question is whether they go the route that DIRECTV did and use a proprietary access point to keep the LAN separate and apart from the client traffic.
Absolutely. And we can only hope the current, non supported, wireless work around continues.
