Re: Ho HD Boxes

said by kes601:

So, you are saying Motorola should have no blame in the matter when they are the ultimate cause of the shortage for multiple companies?
It depends entirely on what Verizon and Motorola had agreed. If Motorola failed to ship product in the volumes and timeframe that they had agreed to then it's its fault. If Verizon failed to plan properly and suddenly increased its requirements then it is its fault. The fact that multiple providers are affected would tend to suggest the former, but it could be that all the providers simply failed to predict a sudden increase in HD deployment.

Blame is not only irrelevant, but probably off-target.

The same thing happened with Comcast a while back...I got so desperate I almost changed to them...luckily they were out of HD boxes...then they said "we have a few HD DVR boxes but you'll be charged that price"....*Click* (me hanging up).

I am reading reports up to 4 months? Is that true? Wow...that is completely not acceptable. This is really going to hurt them...big time.
Even though there are only 28-30 HD channels, I make it a point to watch those channels 90% of the time.

If my HD box goes dead, I still have my dish to fall back on.

I called up to order the triple play today and they told me 4 months. I'm now looking at Cox and DirecTV instead.
