Remember, $799 is MSRP. When was the last time you paid list price for anything?

Best Buy's cost is $500. That means you should see it from Buy.com and Amazon.com for $600-650. Tivo also has a $150 mail-in rebate on new Tivo purchases. Your "true" price after mail-in rebate should be about $500.

Have a lifetime subscription on a Series1 or Series2? Tivo just announced that they are allowing owners of current Series1 and Series2 lifetime boxes to transfer their lifetime subscription to the new Series3 for a one-time charge of $199. That means no monthly fees. As part of this offer, Tivo also includes an additional 12 months of free service on the existing box.
