Re: Rip Off

And yes it will be a ripoff -- I can just see them charging $199 for an exchange -- and you owned the old one and don't own the new one...

Well if you buy the box retail then you own it. $200 Exchange is no where near the $1200 price tag the units will have when they come out. BTW if you want to own comcast box its near $1000 as well.

No it's not, Comcast doesn't offer an option to buy the box. It's rental only.
