But I still go back to all these costs should & my guess is ,were part of the business plan.

Call outs:- The whole point of renting is that if it goes wrong its down to the supplier. So if its a fault no charge.That should be part of the business model. If not SACK the people whom worked it out, as clearly they are not up to the job .

I surpect that it is more along these lines ( Well every business will try this) . How to increase our revenue stream.

We have costed for supply & fit BUT lets see if some "silly" people will pay AGAIN for delivery & setup. OMG there are lots ( including me for V+ at the special offer rate at the time). Ok Do it again. and look it works. Even if the product ( & I cannot judge on this) is not the next holy grail of TV viewing.
Have you not actually read about the TiVo installations in the very many posts talking about it, they take at least 40 minutes and during the install the technician has to get the power levels adjusted correctly and various firmware downloaded and installed, so it will always remain a manned install.
