When I login to Tivo.com, under my account I still see "Change Billing to Lifetime" as an option, which appears to still work:

https://www3.tivo.com/tivo-mma/billingoption.do

Is this still available to existing customers or an oversight not removed from the memu?

I just switched one of my boxes a few minutes ago so it is still available. I think according to another thread it ends today.

it ends at 8pm pacific time todayOnline, yes. For signups from then on. But existing users can still call Customer Support into April:To clarify for everyone -- if you purchased your non-bundled TiVo DVR prior to 3/16/06, you'll have until 4/15/06 to call and activate lifetime service on the box. This is provided there is no conflict with any other terms of your purchase (such as the requirement to activate service by 3/31 for the current 80 hour offer on tivo.com). Activating Product Lifetime Service will not be available online; you must call TiVo Customer Support in order to activate Product Lifetime service. Boxes purchased on or after 3/16/06 will not be eligible to activate Product Lifetime service. http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?t=290723

Also, new Humax DVD TiVos will still be eligible for Lifetime.

At the time of this posting, lifetime is still an online option to any customer existing or new. It is not an oversight It was never claimed that it would disappear at the stroke of midnight. TiVopony and TiVoOpsMgr made it very clear in their many recent posts that lifetime would disappear shortly after the 15th.

I can guarantee you that option will not be there tomorrow, so if you want to take advantage of it, act before 8pm Pacific tonight.
