There is no additional charge for the transfer. If a unit is in warranty and you have it repaired by TiVo they transfer the lifetime to the new box free of charge. If the unit is out of warranty and you have TiVo repair it then there is an out-of-warranty repair fee, which includes the lifetime transfer to the new unit. TiVo never actually repairs your box and sends it back to you, they take your box and send you another, already refurbished box from their rotating stock. So *any* repair of a lifetime box includes transfer of lifetime to a new box. Then your old box goes through repair and refurb and goes into the stock to be sent to someone else when they have their unit repaired. -MZ -- megazone-at-megazone.org http://www.MegaZone.org/ Gweep, Geek, Human, me. http://www.GizmoLovers.com/ http://www.Eyrie-Productions.com/ -><- Hail Eris "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men" 508-852-2171
