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.

If I didn't have phone service with them, I would also buy a data modem and
get rid of that $7 rental fee.
