Does anyone have any idea what the approximate price will be?

149 bucks. It looks like a nice piece of equipment. Can't wait to get my hands on one after the bin comes out. :rolleyes:

I am also looking to get my hands on one of these. I was just wondering how reliable is captiveworks support? Is it comparable to viewsat support? Thank for your input.

The CW support is top notch. They release excellent bins, as any 600premium owner vouche, and they are always introducing new features. They raised the bar in minimum requirements, lowered STB prices, and introduced features no other STB had. I expect the new CW800 to follow in the same pattern.

The recorded files on the 800 are GTS extension. My WMP won't recognize them. Anyone know how to use the recorded GTS files on your PC?

I was looking for that info on the box and User's Manual, it's not given anywhere there. So, my guess would be it's nothing to brag about. I've read other members post the 800 processor's speed is 150.
