Hopefully that was a bad choice of words.:) Renting them would hopefully be what was meant. As for getting to beta test the new unit. That is cool for you. It'd be nice if most Insight areas would have a few non employee beta testers. But for as many years as I've been saying this. I've yet to hear of any non employee's getting to test new technology being considered for deployment.
I'm hoping to find out this week if my local office has any of the new devices in stock. From the sound of things the new DVR box would be something new and fun to play with.
I'm not wanting to go "Google it" at the moment. What is the hard drive capacity with this newer model? Hopefully increased from the previous unit. My household always maxes out the current DVR box easily most weeks.

I think we spoke with someone at the Springfield, IL office tonight. The person stated they were expecting a shipment from Motorola. But that he didn't know when they would be coming in. He stated he was aware that some customers had already received the new DVR dual tuner cable box. So once again it's a case of the right hand not knowing what the left is doing. And yet another shining example of upper management and IT not letting those on the frontlines know what the game plan is. Great way to have customers upset and irate on the phone.
"but "real soon now"
From previous years of experience with comments like that. This could mean tomorrow or a year from now.:D

i've always wondered why these things aren't sold in stores, online, ect...i mean, i've seen a few on ebay, but for WAY too much ($400+) if you ask me... |
