They need to change that to "Starting at $12.95". Good price though - I wonder if it will keep dropping now that the TiVoHD is out.

Doesn't the "B" in model number 648250B call out a refurb unit? I have had success with refurbs in the past but I wish there was a greater savings. Plus you can get a refurb from Tivo direct for $499.99 including shipping and a wireless adapter.

The A model was never released. Every S3 sold has been the B model.

I've been torn between the $499 refurb deal from the TiVo site (which throws in the wireless adapter) and new for $599 (+$50 for the adapter). Throw in the variable of no 3 year pre-pay option on the service for the refurb and my head is spinning. :confused:

Maybe this settles it...
