    they might be saving that space to put the "widgets" or whatever they call them, weather, browser, etc...? who knows, it may be completely different when the 922 is available. but it does look very promising.

    The on-screen UI on the 922 looks awesome. Wonder if DISH will port the look & feel of this UI over to other DVRs?

    From what I've read 'no'. Disappointing but not that surprising.

    Has anyone heard if the 922 will be able to tune an OTA channel when it has lost it's sat. signal?

    Not sure if this link was posted here. I found it looking at TV reviews...

    I, myself, do not like channel logos on a guide. After all, the channel logos on channels change alot but I don't see Dish changes the logos on the guide...just my peeve. If the logo changes on the channel, update the guide. Directv has channels like that on their guide. I am not a fan of this guide or remote, I like what they have now.
    Dish Network 622, Motorola 4dtv DSR 922, 10 footer cband, Pansat 9200, gosh, just too much to list!

    Be interesting to see if it's still possible to use a universal remote, like my Harmony One, with this new UI. The touchpad/trigger is quite a break from traditional remote designs.

    I asked the same question, and supposedly a standard universal remote will work just fine and you can scroll through the menu's normally.

    IF this comes out respectably prices (under $200), I'm all over it.
    And if it works as advertised (along with the new satallite at 129), I will be willing to forgive E* for the failure of 150 channels, and the yearly price hike.
    This set looks like it'll be awesome.
    I love that it'll accept movies from an external drive hooked up to my current 622.
