    I guess the day I bite for HDTV is when I get an upgrade to the HD DVR that is identical in functionality and features as my current dual tuner DVR's. I bet the same goes for most others as the average subscriber is not going to shell out a lot of money to get HDTV. They will switch back to cable in a heartbeat even if they have to lease the receiver because they dont have to shell out a lot of money upfront.

    I am with a few others on this. Considering I already sub to AEP, HD, and Voom it makes no sense to me to purchase a receiver. I am and will be glad if they offer a lease deal as an upgrade path to the new HD-DVR. Also when you lease you no longer pay the additional receiver fee, only the lease fee so you actually are breaking even!

    For me it was cheaper to buy an 811 of ebay then to pay all the fees dish wanted to lease it to me. Plus I didn't want to be forced into the hd pack if I didn't want it. My understanding is they now require at60 plus the hd pack to lease an 811. I mainly wanted it for hbo and showtime.

    $700. And you can count on that.
    As much as you can count on any other rumor.

    Hello and Happy new year to All,
    I own a 811, I get my local off air listings and all works well with timers, with that said, will I see the same local listing off air info with the Vip611 to be able to timer record or will I have to purchase local listing from Dish.
    Sorry if this has already been coveed, I didn't spot anything in this thread.

    It would be neat to be able to use the ethernet ports to put the video over a wireless network in the future.

    It looks like the "vip322" listed on this thread is now officially named "vip222" according to the CES Dish display. See Scott's photos from this afternoon: http://www.satelliteguys.us/photopos...t/500/ppuser/1
