Its due to arrive the same day Installs Inc. is given the JD Power top quality installer of the year award. 
ChetK,
How's your 4-6 HD channels coming along? Divide that by the $1k DVR cost and each channel is $167 to $250 per channel. Woo Hoo... I'll wait for the lease option...

Ah, that's always the argument isn't it? I've got news for you, you can only watch one channel at a time. And if you'd don't have a PVR, you often miss the actual shows you want to see.
You do have a point. I think everyone really does want one. I'm just not going to give up my HD motherload to get one (yet...)
I'm a channel flipper and am usually watching 2-3 shows at the same time. Question: Why doesn't VOOM go one up on everyone else in the world and offer a remote with a 2-3 previous channel memory list? That would be a good thing!

2 more weeks.
All kidding aside, I rarely sit down and watch a movie live. I'd rather record it to my PVR and play it back at my leisure than sit through an entire 1.5 to 2 hours at a stretch. PVR's have totally spoiled me. Besides, I can justify the degradation of PQ viewing it through my PVR, I can't justify it watching it live.

Besides, I can justify the degradation of PQ viewing it through my PVR, I can't justify it watching it live. Its quantity, thats what I've learned. I dropped voom because of ongoing billing errors. Went to cable and have their hd dvr now, but I miss voom something awful. Cable has hdnet, hdnet movies, discovery hd, hbo-sho-strz hd, so thats like 6 or 7 hd channels. No east-west either, just one hd feed for cable. Having a hd recorder is very nice, but not much to record. I caught more hd programming with voom, even without a pvr, because they had the east-west feeds and their own voom channels. Yes, as you may have already guessed, I'm considering returning to voom. I rather have quantity. Why cant voom get their hd pvr going? They'd scoop the satellite world, with a pvr and all that programming, and truly give all the others a run for their $$$. I could actually see voom exceeding D* in popularity if their pvr came into the mix. It just makes no sense at all voom has none, especially this late in the game. Tragic!!!
