Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll go buy this one and replace my current 40 hour series 2 and keep the 40 hour as a spare. :)

How do I cancel the service agreement of the Tivo I want to replace?

I think you have to call TiVo.

The $150 rebate terms say "Valid only for new service contracts.". Has anyone been able to replace their existing TiVo with one of these and still get the rebate? I'd like to upgrade from our 40 hour, but this statement makes me think we're not eligible for the rebate.

I think you can start a new service contract on one of these, then cancel the one on the old box. UNLESS you still have a commitment on the old one that is unfulfilled. Then I don't think you can take advantage of this without risking an early termination penalty, or forfeiting the rebate.

I bought the 80-hour Tivo at a local Best Buy and found out after I set everything up that the $70 rebate only applies to purchses on BestBuy.com. Oh well. :) Its still a good deal to me.
