</div>BTW, check your bill. For me they just raised that (charge for a cable<br>
card) to $6.00 US and added a mysterious cable modem rental charge of<br>
$7 to my bill even though I purchased my own modem in 2004. I have<br>
call and get that one fixed soon..<br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br>You may be correct. I did verify that the first one is "free", but forgot to ask about additional CCs. Sorry, my bad. I also found out that HD STB rentals went from $15.95 to $9.25 in my area. That means that it will take longer for the PRIME to pay for itself, but I will still be very happy with my purchase.<br>
<br>If I didn't have phone service with them, I would also buy a data modem and get rid of that $7 rental fee.<br>
