I've looked around on the net and yep it's dead. I paid $299 for my HR20 when they came out and have never called DirecTV asking for a deal. What are my chances on getting a deal on an HD DVR?

Hard to say. You'll have to call and ask.

"CSR Roulette" I'll call in the morning. I guess I can reactivate one the RCA receivers I have in the shed if I can't can't get a deal.

I was offered $50 off an HD DVR. Looks like I'll try replacing the HDD on the Philips. My brother has a few. How big does it have to be?

It has to be at least as big, or bigger, than the current drive in your Tivo. Check out these resources ....
