I am going to have to call you guys on this one. Red box is $1 per day - not $1 plus it doesn't take long to rake up transportation costs if you have to go out of your way to get to one. Also I will am going to call you on VOD every cable and Sat company has these services and they are cash cows. Not really sure how Amazon is doing but it appears they are doing well.

Netflex may make more sense but that hasn't stopped the mases yet.
How to fix the world economy - legalize sex, drugs, & gambling everywhere - then get rid of 60% of the world police force.
Sounds like a winner to me!
I don't know about fixing the world economy, but I vote for legalizing most drugs, prostitution, and gabling - that would be a good start to getting rid or organized (and violent crime) and reducing the waisted $$ government spends trying to control peoples bad habits.
Prices change so worrying about them in a usability review does add much. Currently it is about $800 more than a TiVo HD with lifetime and less than a TiVo HD XL with lifetime.
Just a comment on pricing including shipping from quick Internet search

Moxi: $799

TiVo HD XL With Lifetime:
Current TiVo owner: $795
Non TiVo owner: $895

TiVo HD with Lifetime:
Current TiVo owner: $530
Non TiVo ower: $630

Of course prices change almost daily but it is pretty clear that the Moxi doesn't have a price advantage over TiVo.
No good OTA DVRs? Really? Maybe you should take a look at a TiVo HD.
I live in the Rochester NY area another test market. I am sure they picked it because their only competition is Frontier DSL - Time Warner owns most of the Rochester market now - no hope of FIOS and Frontier DSL has limited ability to go up against them. I started a fairly long thread over on the TiVo Community forum:

Or another way to price TiVo:
TiVo HD $250 (amazon)
500 GB external drive $112 (buy.com)
lifetime for existing TiVo owners $299

The Tivo is $674 total (or $125 less than the Moxi) with more space than the Moxi and it works with OTA.

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!"
