    It only works with the 211K, but it cost about half of the other automatic dishes sold by others.

    Tailgater will work with the 211 once it has obtained current software from a regular dish. That's something Dish should want customers to know, yet it didn't appear in the release notes.

    Actually it is something we discussed and its something they are thinking of doing. Retailers are having a hard time selling the Tailgaters because when looking at the regular one you have no idea what it is, but if they have clear ones as displays it is easy to figure out what it is.

    so what makes it award winning? its not revolutionary by any means.

    It's portable, the others are all attached... this you can set on a tailgate and let it go.

    If you've ever used one you'd realize what sets the Tailgater apart from all other portable Dish devices. I love mine and so do all of our customers. There is nothing cheaper to buy and easier to use.

    that doesn't explain anything. sounds somewhat subjective... what makes it revolutionary? being cheaper and somewhat easier to user than devices that already exists for the exact same purpose doesn't qualify for award winner; just cheaper and possibly better.. what all does it work with; explain its details? other units can work with different services, not just one.. what are your personal experiences; this is already on the market; AND its at CES as a new product? I am not busting your chops, I am looking for real info and details.
