They last extended them in April, but that rebate expired on 6/28. So starting on 6/29, and running through 8/30, a new rebate takes over. Slightly different terms than the last one – $200 off a TiVo Series3 (TCD648) or $150 off a Series2DT (TCD649), there is no longer any rebate on the old single-tuner Series2. You can get the rebate form in HTML or PDF and pre-qualify via TiVo’s website.

The rebate brings the Series3 down to $392.45 through Amazon (and as low as $381.97 through their 3rd party sellers), and the Series2DT down to $65.99 through Amazon.

Personally I wouldn’t go with either of those, but rather the TiVo HD at $249.40, especially if you’re considering the Series3. Get the TiVo HD and pick up the Glo remote separately and save some money. If you plan to use any of these units with WiFi, remember to pick up a TiVo USB WiFi Adapter.

You can also pick up a factory-renewed TiVo HD for $199.99.

It offers $150 back on Series2 units (models starting with 540) and Series2DT units (models starting with 649), and $200 back on Series3 units (models starting with 648). That means TiVo-branded ‘night light’ Series2 units, all Series2DT units, and the original Series3 – but not the TiVo HD. And only units not purchased directly from TiVo.com – just retail units. See the rebate for the full details and pre-qualify at the TiVo Rebate Center.

Thanks to Lou Jacob of DVRupgrade for the heads-up.
