They have enlarged the library at Frisco, it covers 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the place. Bet they keep the homeless out, though.
Gifts/Things to bring... matching towel set monogrammed of course ZC MP, chips & suds, bratz & suds, FC DALLAS gear....
mud's got the tube, but the tuner is outrageously expensive for existing customers - but new customer's get a deal? way to reward the customer loyalty guys...
I can't find ANYONE giving a deal on the HD Tivo (real Tivo, not that crappy knockoff that I have from Comcast,) DirecTV setup, or I might switch. The price tag I've seen every time is still 1K. Am I missing a good deal somewhere?
HD DirecTiVos are HOT right now -- [Tony Kornheiser]hotter than Bea Arthur in a bikini[/TK] -- so good luck finding one under $999 before next summer. As for a regular HD tuner (non-TiVo), if you've been a DirecTV customer for a while, call them up and ask for "customer retention" and they'll hook you up.
By "hook up," I mean they'll give you a deal on an HD receiver for $100 or $200 as long as you make some sort of programming commitment.
yeah, but stand-alone it would be like $500, right? maybe even just apply the same kind of discount to a Tivo'd version to make it $600 or $700? i don't know these things at all.
The problem is that they're not going to give you any sort of deal on the new HD DirecTiVo right now, because they're so new and so popular. They'll only give a deal on a regular HD receiver, but mostly because they'll be giving you last year's HD receiver, which they're trying to clear out of their warehouse.
Not to start this again, but I just got new DISH at my new apt. PVR (not tivo) Free HD box Free the HD PVR combo box is still a grand but all the rest was free.
Currently have standard Tivo. HD Tuner: $500 HD Tivo: $1000 I don't want to waste my time on a HD Tuner without a way to record in HD, so the next purchase is HD Tivo...just not now at $999 -- not when I have Taiwan, Mexico, & Germany trips to pay for.
Here's the $64k question... when are we going to be able to burn a cd from a HD pvr ??? and will same be compatible for playback in non-HD dvd players, in letterbox format, after the 'switch' in '07 ???????? i see no point in reconfiguring the numerous vhs setups I have around the house if I can't offload to hard media.... how many gigs does a 2-hour HD fixture require? how many gigs are on these new HD pvr's? what happens to all of your archived fixtures when the power goes out? -bs
Once you go HD you never go back. My 57 inch HD looks sick.... you shoudl see MLS on HDnet... and ESPN footballl.. the world series in HD was stunning. and Discovery HD is miind blowing.
