I posted about this on Engadget's comments as well, but I just can't justify the cost. If they either cut out the montly fee, or slashed the price of the unit, I might bite, but currently, this is just too expensive for what you get. For roughly $15/month with no startup cost, I am getting a dual tuner HD DVR in my Moxi. While it's interface isn't as nice, and it doesn't have as much storage, the jump in price to the Tivo S3 does not reflect an equal jump in value. Besides, I am still more excited about Vista Media Center with CableCard support! Now THERE is a unit that will live up to its cost!
