the shaw boxes are refurbished
I haven't looked at the flyer yet, but are they the refurbished PVR boxes? (motorola DCT 6208) [/b][/quote]
Don't know this for sure, but my guess would be that these boxes actually aren't refurbished. I think they probably just say that so people don't go all over town trying to price match at different retailers. Other retailers say that they can't match the price because all of theirs are new. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Shaw is selling these things directly to the consumer, and probably have arrangements with retailers to do so through their stores. So instead of having all of their digital terminals across town at $100 off, they limit themselves to 300. Just my theory.

Anyway, I just picked one up, and they still had a bunch left 1 hour after they opened. 1 year warranty.

Edit: I'm wrong, it is refurbished....originally registered to someone in Vancouver
