So Who's In the Know?? When is there going to be more Hopper to Hopper Integration?

Plenty of room except when PTAT is going. Then again that's what scroll bars are for.

As it currently stands, Hopper integration is about the same as DirecTV's offering, except the Hopper has 3 tuners instead of 5. I'm not sure that Dish is going to so anything more than that. Chances are they will release a 6 tuner Hopper instead.

Personally, I like it just fine the way it is now, and those that want it another way can get the 6 tuner version if/when it is released. Though they need to get EHDs working between Hoppet-to-Hopper.

I'm very satisfied with my 2-Hopper 2-Joey set up as well. And PTAT is a great feature... really does put Dish a cut-above-the-rest.

One thing I prefer with Hopper by far over D*'s offering is the fact that you can easily use PiP with the buttons on the remotes.

I really don't think its right that they should push six tuner hopper and just not complete the work on integrating the two three tuner hoppers or three three tuner hoppers. It gives us redundancy which with dish we really need, I know I don't want just one box that does it all, due to failure. So as logical as it seems to have one hopper that does it all I would rather have the two, hopefully they will see this and come to the same conclusion or at least allow us to have a six tuner and two three tuner ones.

I think at this point, i'd just be satisfied with a drop down that flips back and forth between hoppers for viewing tuners. Just like they have for DVR content shared between hoppers.

I don't even really care about seamless integration anymore as I've realized that we like having a little separation within the household.

Have you see the seamless integration in action on DirecTV? I have seen it with 3 HD DVRS all connected, the list has shows all on the same list.
If you happen to record the same show on more than one, it just puts them both into a folder automatically for you.
If you want to just view the one DVR list you have a drop down for it.
This way you get the best of both options, the customer gets to choose.
Currently with Dish you are forced into just one option.
