Technically, there's no reason they couldn't, right??

Enhanced for your viewing pleasure

Are we sure that's touchpad and not a touchscreen?

No touchscreen, its a touchpad.

I think having video in the guide is wasted screen real estate. If you turn off the pic in guide you get more channels listed. If one relly needs pic with guide hit browse instead. I have 8 irds in the house from dish and bell and non have pic in guide turned on.

I could not disagree with you more. I LOVE the enhanced with video guide. It still lists plenty of channels on the screen and I can still follow what is going on in the picture (especially helpfull when there are lots of ball games on). That "little window" is still pretty darn big on my 60" TV.

looks great on my 60in too. It was one of things I liked about the guide on the old Dishplayers. I prefer the darker colors too.

Will the 922 come with a TB Hard Drive?

What exactly is one vs. the other?

Touchpad has no screen, it's just a touchpad, like what's on a laptop computer.
Touchscreen is more like what's on an iPhone or some PDA phones, and many (most/all?) Harmony remotes.

I've always wanted this feature in Dish's program guide.... I liked it when DirecTV had it, what, 6-7 years ago ? To be honest, there are many channels that I don't really know their names and the abbreviations used don't help me enough !
