At the title says..

I've ordered mine and gone for 1 business day shipping. The new HDTV is being delivered on Friday and Comcast are coming in on Saturday to install the cable cards. The only risk is will it ship in time to arrive for Friday?

Anyone know if they are actually shipping today? Anyone had confirmation?

BTW - Comcast new about the S3, knew the two cards were for one device and happliy only charged one outlet fee. Total cost $7.95 additional outlet fee per month extra because I'm keeping the STB for VOD in another room. Truck roll was $9.95.

I was told they weren't shipping until Thursday. I chose the one day so I should get it Friday. I'm cutting it really really close because the only time RCN can come out is Friday from 2-5pm, so I can only hope the package arrives before then. If it's UPS then I'm confident it will. Fedex in my area can be slower at times.

When I ordered my last S2 I didnt' get a shipping notify until the day it had arrived. It came by DHL if I remember right.

Anyone else notice the fine print that read:

"Authorized and fulfilled by High Definition Entertainment, Inc." I didn't see anything on Google about them.

saw it figured it's a new division of tivo for s3's or something. But dont really know.

There was an asterisk someplace that says "ships in 48 hours" not sure if that means end of the day wednesday or first thing thursday. I'm hoping for wednesday!


if you go to tivo.com/vip

first comment below the black box is:
*Ships in 48 hours.

Ordered mine from CC this morning -- shipped this afternoon (FedEx) -- shipping confirmation e-mail says it's supposed to be here on Friday.

EDIT: FedEx now says tomorrow!

Is there a page I can go to see the status, or do I just wait for the email?

Edit: Sorry, didnt' realize CC meant Circuit City. :)

Well, I ordered mine today and did 1 business day shipping and the CSR told me I will have it before the weekend (Friday). I spoke to Cablevision (my provider) today and have them coming to install my cablecards on Sunday (assuming that the OTA signal may not work...wanted to hedge my bets).

It would be nice for me since mostly everything I watch is on HD local channels...I will be saving all of this...

Just called to verify ... "shipping Thursday (9/14), 1-day orders should arrive Friday, shipping from Texas via UPS, should get a tracking number once shipped" ... word for word what they said ... we'll see ...

The multi-stream cards are not scheduled for deployment at any location until mid-October at the soonest.

It'll be interesting to see if any of the MSOs offer a swap program where you can return your two sign stream cards for a multi-stream card without being charged another truck roll fee.

I can live with Friday beacuse Comcast cannot get to me until Saturday anyway. I just NEED it to be this week.

well, I got 2 day shipping... With my luck if I call them to try and change to overnight, I will be pushed down the list, and it will ship even later.

Please let me know if this works for you, I scheduled for Saturday as well, with 2 day shipping, and now I think it might not be here in time, if they really don't ship until Thursday. I was hoping it would ship today or tomorrow when I ordered this morning.... Called Tivo to switch to overnight shipping and was told no-can-do..
