If I could afford this, I prolly would do this. Since all of them have a channel here and there or feature that I like.

To calm myself down, I remind myself that I was with TW 4 months ago and had only 11 HD channels including the locals(only one in HD). Dish may not be the leader as of now but they sure are better than what I had in October! Now I have three local in HD thanks to vip722 tuner picking up local HD and digital with just rabbits ears!(nine total ,some are digital sd) Along with the about 40 HD channels on dish. The grass does look greener on Direct side of the fence as far as HD right now, but TW makes Dish look like a lush meadow. I am locked in for another 14 months, thats how long Dish has to right itself in my book. Sooner if the 13.33 a month fee is offset by a rebate or a great offer. I spent good money of an HDTV ,its time I start getting a better return on my investment. Dish has me for now, they are an upgrade from my local cable.

My guess is Scott needs some new sources. That or better learn how to interrogate the ones he has.

This thread has simply become a source for entertainment.

Perhaps I should lend him my home waterboarding kit.

Yes, I saw and acknowledged your smiley, so this comment isn't really directed at you. But the comment does strike a chord as I've seen other posts more scathing than yours and not meant to be tongue in cheek. Scott reports rumors as just that--- rumors. I get tired of people slamming him for relaying them. It concerns me that he'll just clam up all together as a result. I don't know his actual track record, but I do know some rumors posted by him have come to fruition while others haven't. It's the nature of rumors. Period.

couldnt agree with you more; Scott is the most valuable asset on this forum, and he ALWAYS coins "rumors" as just that..

If Scott gets the Gold Medal, then Digi deserves the Silver.

I talked to Digi yesterday. We are so damn lucky to have someone like him here.

Digi. I think I saw where you are planning on going to the CES next year. My advice to you. If it is in Vegas again take money.

I have no idea if you are looking to relocate or not. If you are take a resume with you. Some tech company would be lucky to have you.

My remarks were not meant as a slam against Scott but at Dish's attempts to use him as a propaganda conduit.
