That sounds like what they may be doing here, along with the same language
("free for a year"). Are you sure about that interpretation? It would be
wrong to give you something and then later charge for what they gave you.
Maybe it just means if you DON'T get any now you'll have to pay to get it
later.


I may be wrong for how long, but think it is a year. Anyway , after a
certain ammount of time the cable company will charge a $ 2.75 a month for
each device. Bad thing about it will not give all the channels, just the
standard TV that is already free on the analog TV that is going away on
cable.
Below is from their web page. Talking with some that have gone to this
converter box (the converter box for off the air TV will not work either)
say it is free for now to watch.

Digital Adapters are free for a limited time in some areas. Please refer to
our Digital Adapter support page for details
