In its Sunday circular this week, Best Buy is advertising the high-def TiVo from DIRECTV for $699, a $300 savings off the regular list price of $999. The price cut takes effect tomorrow (Tuesday the 17th) and also includes three months free of DIRECTV's HD programming package, which is normally $10.99/mo.
It's about time the price started to come down on this device. For hardcore TiVo lovers, it's a must-have if you're into high-def, but with competing HD-DVRs from cable companies going for $10 or $15 a month with no upfront purchase required, it's getting tough to justify an HD TiVo for several hundred bones. This also puts DIRECTV more in line with DISH Network's HD-DVR, which goes for $699 as well.
