New Hughes HD DVR

Anyone going to jump on the new Hughes Directv HD Tivo? I am told it ships March 31st. The only drawback I see is no firewire. However, since I just bought a DLP for the bedroom, I will be buying it as soon as it hits the shelf.

Orbitsat told me that it'll probably be sometime the first half of April... Could be the 1st, could be later, but it'll ship out the day they get them in.
