Guest Frieked Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 If only I had $800 to spare... I heard somewhere that you can transfer your lifetime subscription to a series 3 for an additional $200 but I can't confirm it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can transfer a lifetime sub from a Series1 or Series2 unit to a new Series3 for $199, and the existing unit will still get one year of service as well before you have to start paying monthly.

jamesave Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 so what's the different between series 2 and 3, beyond the lofty price difference ? I mean, $800?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 so what's the different between series 2 and 3, beyond the lofty price difference ? I mean, $800??The big difference is HD support. You can record two HD programs at the same time (while watching another recorded one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to buy it from TiVo directly.You have to use this link: http://tivo.com/vip (copy and paste the URL into a new browser window - The redirecting from this site screws something up) Erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
