    I've also read this entire thread. Still would like to know if the learning remote will be IR/UHF as the 6.3 is. Anybody know for sure (Scott???).My sister has an Olevia in her bedroom with her 722 in the living room. She has to use two remotes. There's no code nor will a scan work to control an Olevia currently. One of my HD TVS is an Olevia but its in the same room as my 622 so I'm able to use a cheap Sony learning remote to control both (IR). Thanks!

    Yes, it will - there is a picture posted how to do that. Regardless if it's Olevia or Bravia or Hoovia.

    It has been stated in many posts in various threads on the subject that THERE WILL NOT BE A MONTHLY FEE, just the one time activation fee. Someone even posted an email from Dish to this effect.

    It has also been stated that there will definately be one. So who knows for sure?
    Anyone? I'm not sure who to trust....a Dish CSR, Smith P (he said there will be) or who. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure, because for some of us...if there is a monthly fee, we won't be doing this.

    Just wait for Nov 19 - a lot of 211 owners will go with the feature and everyone will post in his own thread what fees imposed.
