| | I was not that excited about about this piece of equipment until I saw the Scotty chat video, and now I want one. It looks good and sounds pretty cool. Honestly I did not see it as anything that appealing until I saw the video and heard what it was all about in detail and saw what it looked liked. The things that most interest me are the built in internal 1 terabyte hard drive and built in sling technology. I can see some definite uses for these if I can get a faster upload speed and some sort of gadget that will let me view it. I guess it is okay to dream.

Anyone know if a Standard remote will be able to control the 922? The new remote is cool and all, but with so many devices and my wife and kids going back and forth between them, our Logitech controller has been our savior. I would hate to have to give it up.

It should also be noted that half of the hard drive will be for Dish Network's use (think VOD). That isn't finalized, but it is the initial report.

I like how the 922 remote acts like a mouse with a mouse pointer on the guide screen.

me and my friend thought of an idea. why dont they add an auto pause feature that can be toggled on and off. so if you want to flip the channel when a commercial comes on it automatically pauses what you were watching.

Looks nice! Hopefully it's real :-) I'm longing for the day of a dual-tuner that pushes dual HD rather than one HD and one SD. Then I'd only need one box, and this looks to be the perfect candidate if it has that feature :-D
