Hmmm. Contract with comcast vs. having to pay for a wii.

I would rather ride a chinese 50cc in drunken traffic than sign a contract with comcast....

If they included the Wii Fit with it I'd bite. We've been trying to get one of those since they came out, but for whatever reason they only ship one or two of the damn things to each store (and I'm not so desperate that I'm going to camp outside Best Buy to get one).

Why is it so tough to get one of these things?

I seriously don't understand Comcast phone service. I know very few people that still have landlines. I haven't had one for 4 or 5 years.

Yeah...i don't get that either. I just assumed it was for people with families that don't have children old enough to carry cell phones or something. ( or people who reject the notion of cell phones, which i also understand ).

Still, Comcast sucks the big wang and i will never ever go back to them.. Wii or no-Wii.

( plus, i have a wii already )

I actually haven't had any issues with their internet or TV services. In fact, in one apartment, they accidentally installed our upstairs neighbor's order in our place, but charged us for the package we ordered. Result? Free box and service for my bedroom TV for a year!

i hate comcast w/a pasion.
my internet goes down @ least once a week.
some times for more than a week.
ususaly our whole apt building is out so if i call they say they can't put in a work order if there is a problem in the area. but when a guy comes to one of the apts he refuses to fix any others they say you need to make your own appointment so i call & they tell me they can't send someone out if some one is in the area.ect.ect.
i live in the center of boca raton not in some rural area.
even when it was cox cable we had no issues then as soon as comcast took over in the same apt the service became intermittent. & the people @ the call center make up info as they go. i actually feel sorry for them getting reamed out for their crappy service.
we have had installers come then leave & not do anything to fix the issue then when you call @ complaine that you waited a week to have a tech come & leave & do nothin g they say well we don't know who the tech was .
so how can the company insure my safety if he is a theif or a killer?

I kept looking and looking, till I finally found one at a remote Gamestop near my in-laws. The manager told me that they get between 5-18 per week. Just keep checking Gamestop stores.

On the flip side, the guy at Target told me that they get "a few" every other month!

Of course, it may be a little different in Virginia. "Let your fingers do the walking".
