2017 DISH Booth

[Scott Greczkowski]

Greetings from the DISH booth at CES. Vivek says a big HELLO to all SatelliteGuys!

While no big announcements this year there were a few surprises to be found at the DISH booth one of them being DISH anywhere coming this summer to Fire TV!

We have a video demonstration we will be posting later on (shot in 4K so I can't upload it from here)

Dish and Amazon are starting to get rather cozy all the sudden, aren't they?

The AirTV player is here and I must admit that I was able to play with one of these not to long ago and I was sour on the product... but with the new software they have now and are showing off now this may be one awesome device!

We will have a demo video of this as well as a look at SlingTV's Cloud DVR coming in a day or so.

The are showing off the hole home audio feature as well. I know someone who has been wanting this one for a long time.

A special video is coming for that too!

We got Perris Bradley to give us a demo of Alexa voice support for the Hopper. This is going to be awesome!

Does it start with B and end with S?

If you are at CES stop by the DISH booth and say hello and while you are here if you have the DISH Anywhere app installed on your phone DISH will give you a Hopper Voice Remote for free!

What, no Hopper 4 with 64 tuners?

Dish and Amazon are starting to get rather cozy all the sudden, aren't they?

If you're not cozy with Amazon, you're going to be somewhat out in the cold. They are the driving force behind many recent initiatives.

Charlie is here too come say hello.

Say Hi to Charlie for me! He should remember me, I've been helping him pay his bills for about 20 years now. I do miss his Charlie Chat's!

Might be enough for me to ditch my ROKU for a Fire TV.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

TuneIn is not planned for the app unfortunately.

Scott, any chance of seeing the "DishAnywhere" app on the new AirTV? That would be an awesome add-on for the guest room TV without the monthly fee for a Joey.

Also, the one picture you posted of Charlie is locked (?) and the other photo looks like Tim Cook stopped by the Dish booth
