Does E* have some inside information about Voom's DVR? Why would they drop the price $400 if there was no competition?

The Dishnetwork website:
http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/products/receivers/dvr/index.shtml
shows a NEW LOW PRICE of $549!

I bet this is going to be the approximate price of the VOOM DVR.

Dish dropped the price over 2 weeks ago. They are looking to capture some holiday sales. :)

They captured me...:)

Why bother since Dish has only five HD channels?

For one, the ability to record OTA HD signals.

Why would they drop the price $400 if there was no competition?

Did you forget about that company called DirecTV?

I finally see the 6000u has fanished, from their HD receiver list, it's about time. Also they need to switch the info on the 301 to the 311, since that's the current standard receiver.

how about: They're coming out with a new HD DVR model soon, and they need to clear out inventory of the 921? :p

I've looked into this box, and (for me) a major problem that it doesn't output SD and HD at the same time.

My setup is that my box does HD to the TV, SD to the VCR, and SD RF to the 2 other TVs in the house. Not possible with the 921.

If I only had a job......

I bought my dish 6000 u two years ago, and they have the same loop with the girl in the Dinasaur museum, for the last 24 months. The excavators in the mountain, and the segment under water with the astranauts. Now tell me can't a multi billion dollars company have new ad's reflecting new product line up 921 etc, This sums up Dish, Old School

At least voom has new commercials, voom girls etc. Voom is a foreward looking company.

"VOOM girls" ??? ;)
Haven't seen THEM yet...

Is there a calendar or something? lol

I think he's talking about the girls on divine HD...
