ARRIS said it's also premiering a three-room multi-room bundle option -- a three-tuner Moxi HD DVR plus two Moxi Mates that collectively serve three rooms for $999. (The Moxi Mate will also now be priced separately at $299 instead of $399.)

The Moxi HD DVR can record up to 75 hours of high-def programming or up to 300 hours of standard-def. It's also expandable to 6.5 Terabytes for up to 1000 hours of HD recording with an external eSATA drive.

Unlike TiVo's HD DVR, the Moxi does not require a monthly or annual subscription fee.

Kindle Wireless Reading Device: $259

Panasonic 37-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV: $575
