Re: No HD Boxes

A minor update on my situation: after being a promised an HD- DVR when I asked for an HD-STB, I got an SD-DVR via UPS yesterday. While it will do in a pinch, I'm not thrilled about being misinformed by the CSR.

Looks like demand is exceeding forecasts.

Just got my HD-DVR replaced today. I submitted the problem via Verizon Direct forum. After waiting about a week, turns out that it would be more efficient to have a local service call instead of waiting for the drop-ship / send back method. My guess is that they can no longer pull from new stock and are depending on the local repair stash. Got it installed within 3 hours of calling in a service request (nice!).

This makes sense, as someone on AVS forum was about to place a new order and the HD-DVR was missing from Verizon's web site. After a phone call, he was told June (!): »www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthre···&page=89

Verizon is offering a free standard STB for 4 months, or buy a Tivo HD with cable card.
