Awesome phone, I want it !
I switched over from AT&T to Verizon last week. This is in the Phoenix metro area. AT&T coverage has been very bad for me, at my house I was barely able to make calls. Now I have Verizon and calls are much better. No drops, and I can ALWAYS make a call.
Take that, AT&T
$250 ???? wishful thinking. Expect it to be closer to $500 than $250
Does this require a data plan ? Seems like it does not ? not clear to me.
They must be on crack. I use Windows media center (7) and I skip over commercials ALL the time. It is so easy and quick to jump forward or back that it's very easy to do.
On top of that, there is software out there that you can install and will skip commercials for you. The replaytv even had auto commercial skip. Oh yeah !
Windows 7 MC, the BEST dvr out there.
Build a media center (W7) and install the CETON cable card tuner that is coming out in January.
You will get 4 (four) tuners. It can use SDV. It requires only 1 (one) multistream cable card.
This will be the perfect setup hands down. Tivo doesn't even come near it.

Price wise, yeah, Tivo is cheaper short term. Long term the media center will be cheaper since you don't need a subscription. Granted, you might break even at the end of it's life but you will have a much better system that can be updated, tweaked, hacked you name it.Just look at all the plugins that are there now for media center. Can only get better.
Is there any extra cost when I use this from my at&t phone ?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
