Retailer Chat Recap - July 10, 2008

[atlind01]

Still nothing just taking questions, and Jim is stumped on most of them.

If he is stumped then imagine the CSR's, Retailers and customer when they try signing up.

Did anyone brought up the question on what happens to the HD only package?

[dmendenjr]

It looks like only two new National HD (both lifetimes, yuk) and if you are a 1 penny cinemax one more there.

4 New non-premuim Nationals:
Lifetime, Lifetime Movie, Planet Green, CBS College Sports

THANKS DISH!

Jim says to tune into the launch on July 15th at 12:45 am for the launch of Echostar 11.

He says that all these new launches announced today will happen no matter if the new satellite goes up or not.

And they are wrapping up the show now.

Thanks for tuning in to another SatelliteGuys Retailer Chat Recap!

Thanks again for keeping us informed.

Sorry, missed the Planet Green, and college sports

I am very happy with the premium HD adds - the premium channels have the most HD with the greatest general appeal. The major reason I went with Dish a number of years ago is that they offered multi-premiums, while our cable company offered 1 HBO and 1 Showtime.

Well I might finally make my bank account happy and just go with an all HD package starting next month . . . on a separate note, is this what you (Scott) or anyone else that was at that conference were aware of?; or is there more to come that you are aware of?

Again, great job with the pictures and the constant updates . . . job well done!!!
