So I called Shaw around 1pm today as a new customer, waited on hold for probably 10ish min before being offered a call back, got the call back roughly 20 minutes later.

I asked what kind of promotions they have for internet and tv. She asked if I wanted a phone line, and I told her I could take ot or leave it. She said its included in there current promotion:
-extreme internet
-full digital (3 tiers) plus some basic HD
-free PVR rental for a year
-phone line with unlimited long distance in N.A., call display plus some other things I dont really need/care about

The price is $79.99 + tax no installation fee.

Adding movie central and HBO is 17 bucks but they're giving the first 3 months free.

I also made sure I'm getting the Motorola 3400 and not the PACE p.o.s. you guys have been talking about.

Overall I'm pretty happy. I wanted to keep it under $100 bucks with a PVR and didn't want to sign a contract with Telus. I've lived without much HD to this point so that wasn't much of a factor for me. Plus they're coming to install it tomorrow afternoon which is sweet.

Thanks to all of you that shared your experience with this stuff. It made it easy to know what to expect.
