How to buy a Gemini Air device

How does one buy a Gemini Air device? What does it cost, to purchase it outright. Is there a monthly usage fee once purchased (i.e. Not leased) if using with DirecTV Stream service.

Issues / Comments With DirecTv Streaming

DVR Recording Question

We have several DTV Streaming boxes in two different homes. All work well except one box: when we hit record, a message pops up that says "Whoops, that program is finished airing and can't be recorded anymore" None of the other boxes give this error - we hit record and it records.

Returning Gemini devices

Very disappointed with Gemini. One of the devices wouldn’t connect. Today I learned it doesn’t support PiP, so I can’t watch two NFL games at once. If the phone salesman had informed me of this, I never would have signed up for Gemini. I feel I was misled. I want to revert to my Genie devices. Thank
