Directv hd-tivo box

[Toaster]

Does anyone have a directv hd tivo box? how much are they nowadays? how do they perform, etc...etc...etc...

I'm considering switching from comcast cable because of the lack of space on the motorola 6412-III box. 120gb for hdtivo simply isnt enough. Are the dtv hdtivo's upgradable like the non-hd ones were?

Information would be appreciated. THANKS!

I've had my HR10-250 for about 15 months. No issues. No need to power cycle to clear errors etc. No recording glitches.

www.weaknees.com has Tivo upgrades.

I don't know the current prices but a Google search can get you that info.

One thing you should consider it that the HD Tivo will not do the MPEG4 HD locals from D*. Not an issue if you can get your HD locals OTA.

Go into Best Buy, I was in there the other day, I want to say 599 and had a 200 mail in rebate.
