Ok, just got my two tivos in the mail. What do I need to do to get the rebates?
Also, is the service location specific, or TiVo serial number specifc?
Thanks!

what does this mean?

CONSUMER ALERT
This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009, to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the Nation’s transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.

All these old tivos will no longer work stand alone?

This means if you hook an OTA Antenna to your TiVo after next February, that it won't work. It has nothing to do with cable or satellite. The converter boxes that coupons are being generated will fix the problem. The TiVo's only have NTSC tuners built in.

Only if you get you receive your cable OTA. If you're using a wall outlet-connection (wire), you'll be fine.

Has anyone checked their Billing History after activation using this process? I noticed a strange problem, after activating and having receipt showing GC applied to MSD sub. My acct shows a $103.xx balance? Also it won't allow any further activations until I fund the acct? The card is fine. Thing is, I have additional business and am currently stalled! I have a feeling they(TiVo csr) will not be receptive to applying a GiftSub to an already discounted MSD + Holiday pricing new activation as the website(glitch) was/is.LOL! .................

nope, i had no problem, i activated all 3 of mine using the gift sub. I really wanted to do the lifetime as advertised on the gift sub for 299, but they would not honor that.

You are correct. If a unit is activated using a Gift sub, no additional gift sub can be used for paying down the balance.

The rebates typically take 2 months or more. They will wait until your 30 trial period is over before processing.

So it will be a while before anyone gets a rebate for this offer.

I can't believe that TiVo is shutting off the rewards program. I have 1 referral and would like to get something other than just the 5000 point level.
