I do the postage on anything like this if it makes sense to me..And If I really want the item, the postage/delivery won't be an issue.

Some people will complain about anything
......like my complaining now about "Ice, doesn't use the quote button much when he replies to posts"?
For a tuner that WORKS and isn't designed as a TOS pirate box, it's worth it. The price for this thing is about what I paid for my S10 but this one will actually WORK vs the S10 which is mostly useless to me.
so, I'll be buying one. Then I can shut down that hot, noisy home theater PC and retire that flaky, almost useless Openbox S10.
If the timers work and it does DVR recording and S2, it's a winner. That's light years ahead of anything else out there.

HUH??????
what government agency did you say you work for? USPS Advertising? USPS is so wonderful, my junk mail advertising comes a week after it expires. First class takes up to 2 weeks. FedEx is second day --- UPS overnight takes a week.
Brian's stuff is usually next day between 1145 and noon. (FedEx).
According to the SatAV website the ETA is March 23, 2012.

This is unbelievable. I'm sure if Brian was giving this unit for free someone will eventually will ask WHY? Enough already..
UPS = United Package Smashers
WORST delivery service EVER..... Company policy it to crush, mangle, smash, toss, kick and generally abuse everything as much as possible. They also deliver AFTER DARK and use OPEN golf carts!
I despise UPS with a passion and avoid using them when given other options.
In defense of the USPS. At least here where I am, they get the mail to me on time and packages almost always arrive undamaged, showing no signs of abuse.
Their tracking system however, S*CKS...... Worst tracking system ever.. Track it after the fact. I suppose you could probably pay for optional "semi-real time mostly accurate tracking" but really, it's pretty sad..
Fed Ex, at least in this area, has good tracking, is on time, delivers early in the day. I've never had an issue with them abusing packages. They are more expensive but reliable.
When given the chance to choose, I usually will opt for Fed Ex. When I bought my camera last year it came from New York. They offered free 2nd day air via UPS. I declined and paid $40 to have next day air via Fed Ex.
I wasn't about to ship something so valuable through United Package Smashers... No way, no how....
Personally, I wish United Package Smashers would go out of business. They are truly awful....
Next thing you know we are going to find out that Brian is going to make a **gasp*** PROFIT off of this new unit!
Tell me it ain't so!!!!!!!!
Tell me it ain't so!!!!!!!!
I still think about that video on the news last Christmas where a homeowners security camera caught a FedEx guy delivering a package and then he just tossed it over a fence!!!...
Yes. The microHD will be offered on Ebay at regular retail price + shipping to support the resellers of the product.
Just placed my order on Satellite AV, LLC - Satellite Broadcaster Support and Equipment Distribution and I'm very happy with both the price and shipping cost.
Come on guys this is going to be a great receiver!
Thanks for the great work Brian!

This site really is spot on with the targeted advertising..When I pulled up the last post the ad beside it was (Cincinnati Hockey Team) "Cyclones $1 Beer Night Thursday"
i went to the order page but it said no pre-orders. if i order it now, is that a pre-order? i do pay pal and it takes a few days to verify the check. i'm scared they will be sold out before my check clears... counting down the days. charlie
The quibbling over the shipping cost would be funny if it werent so sad. Lemme see..........140 bucks delivered for an essentially custom programmed, HD and PVR capable DVB receiver with a direct line to the FW coding group for detailed function description, feature suggestions, interactive roundtable style debugging discussion if/when needed and .....
from a reputable vendor with a developer/rep online gleaning the hobbyist community for desired features to make it all it can be (FOR US, the plug and play demographic dont care about the stuff we are asking for) and is here every day to answer questions and field issues............hmmmm
Find ANYTHING out there that is comparable for this price. Hell, find anything out there with that level of support period! I mean ANYTHING, auto, consumer electronics, real estate........name it
And as I'm sure these folks know, this box with this level of support will sell itself and could do so at the price some are paying for a Manhattan now or the SSOs when they 1st came along. If Openbox and Manhattan are following this product offering & price....they ARE Concerned!
Brian please dont lower yourself defending this offering. A simple "Perhaps you should give another satellite equipment seller your business. We wont mind, we promise!" should close any responses.
Carry on..........now where's my dang uHD?.....j/k...lol
I was going to get 2 on my initial order if possible, but I dont want to get greedy and someone else have to wait. Besides, I think it would work out better to wait until the multi address remote feature and 2nd gen remote is implemented before getting the 2nd one, if that's still under consideration. I plan to use both STBs in the same room.

.....Am I missing something? The website specifically say;
"Coming Soon! Estimated Available Date: March 23rd, 2012 We are sorry for the inconvenience, but no pre-orders will be accepted."
