What is any different with this "bundle" vs. buying the unit from Channel Master for $249.99 and the WiFi for $39.99? This "bundle" is $10 more.

The bundle comes with an HDMI cable as well. Which you could also buy separately.

There is an HDMI cable included with this bundle. If you don't need the cable, because you have one, and the shipping is no different then you could save $10.

It came with an HDMI cable and free shipping from amazon. Channel Master shipped promptly and had an excellent customer service support

My bill is $12 for each (rented) Hopper and $7 for each (rented) Joey. It doesn't seem like owning the devices affects that service fee.I would suggest renting 2 Hoppers and 2 Joeys, pairing 1 Joey to each Hopper. It's not much of a price difference ($38 vs. $33) but you don't have everything going through 1 box so you avoid the complaints about freezing and lagging. With our system (1 Hopper with Sling, 1 Hopper, 2 Joeys) we have never had an issue.

I haven't made a final choice yet but BlueRay players with 802.11n WiFi capability are available for around $230. For example, see the LG BD390 Blu-ray DVD Player w/ Built-in WiFi at Buy.com. And you can find network-capable (via Ethernet cable) BlueRay players for about $125. Those can also be connected to any existing home WLAN via a Wireless-N Ethernet Bridge / Access Point for around $50. This latter option has the advantage of enabling you to connect one or more additional devices at that location. I hope this is helpful.

I bought this combo, and it came with everything shown. Including the wifi remote.

Plenty of YouTube videos comparing the two! Wifi I've never had an issue with, honestly I feel the Sony has an edge

I'm not sure what page you are referring to but the link for $249 was the same system I purchased for less from Amazon. It works just fine but I think their monthly pricing for service is too high. as my evoice account give me more for less.

The wireless component has an msrp of 130. They are back ordered every place I looked. They use the speakers you have, just hooked up to a rear receiver that plugs in to the wall. Still have wires, just not all the way to the main unit.

Well, the first and obvious difference is about $110. Second, the 851 comes with the wireless accessory kit to where the 850 has it as an additional add on. That and a slight difference in design, They appear to have all the same specs as far as functionality. I don't pay much attention to the freebie software they throw in with these things, but maybe that's part of the price difference as well. For me personally, the freebie software is free for a reason.

Hello Mr. Bell - I'm not sure if there is any difference in the model, but I have been using with Time Warner Cable for quite some time & it's working absolutely fine. It's worth buying this instead of paying five bucks every month.

The only difference is the color. The way you can tell the wifi model is the price goes up about a hundered bucks. Very similar part number but there is an extra letter in the wifi model. I got the non wifi unit. Sweet camera thus far.

You can't spend $100 or less and get built-in Wi-Fi. That feature alone raises the price of the player $60 generally.Try to be more reasonable in your budget or what you want.

Thanks for all your help folks, but I purchased a REFURBISHED 2014 model. It's 100% complete, has a 1-yr warranty, 1-yr free tech support and free shipping, all for only $179! Had to go directly to the WiFiBaby website however...but I'm all set now! :)

I came here from Uncrate.com who is reporting it only costs $650 with WIRED.com saying it's $600, but it's still selling here for $900. Either price point is absurd in my opinion, and I'm just as amazed as you are people are buying it at such a high cost.

Yes. I just signed up on my roommates account and I think they said it would be 11 extra dollars: 5 or 6 bucks for the tivo service and then the fee for an extra receiver in the house. The first person I talked to said I'd have to pay $21 because he was going to charge $10 for hd even though I didn't want hd. When I called back the second person said that wasn't necessary. Once everything was set up I still got hd channels showing up but the channels were black screens. Even if you don't sign up for hd they will show up on this receiver. Fortunately there are ways to get rid of these stations in settings. Obviously something you don't need to worry about if you do want hd. Yes.

I just thought I would add to the discussion here since the comments are so new. I don't know about the WiFi but apparently it doesn't have it. I just purchased one of these for $7.00 in a Goodwill thrift shop and it works great. The latest firmware is from May 31, 2012. Getting the latest firmware may solve some of your problems with this player.
