Ah, to be young again!

I agree that Uverse is not for everyone. The 2 HD streams can be a problem if teenagers, mother-in-law or whatever want to watch at the same time. Unverse is also lacking in sports packages if that is your thing. I have no issues with HD quality though I suppose some do depending on their...

I have had Uverse since February 2008. I am very happy with it. I did have some installation problems which required 3 or 4 visits from AT&T installers. Most of the complaints I have seen are due to unrealistic expectations. I am sure there are some bad installs, but generally AT&T...

Just a suggestion here. This thread is waaaaaaaay to long to read and discusses multiple subjects. Let it end.

Sales reps are not always familiar with the system. You may want to check out this site: uverseusers.com.

Johnny Detroit: Like the fact all the TVs are synced with the DVR so you can watch the taped stuff on any TV. Recorded material can only be watched on the TV connected to the DVR. Whole House DVR Is not yet available, it has been promised for later this year. Of course, it may have been...

Update on Dish offers since I left. Have been gone five weeks, Dish has called twice to get me back. The last offer for the same service I had previously plus a second HD receiver for 25% of my former cost for one year on a two year commitment. Pretty good price, considering the 622 has been...

Well, I guess everyone has their own agenda. I thought someone might be interested in April date given for some additions to Dish. I'll say a little to reply all this speculation. I like Dish in general and the 622 was very nice. It preformed well in providing the HD picture and the DVR...

Explained that the Fox channel in Sacramento was not available in HD over Dish for the last two football seasons. The CSR with a bit of attitude says it is not available in HD. I mentioned it is by OTA, on Directv and Uverse. She tells me it is not HD, just upconverted. For the rumor seekers...

I have a 622 that was running a Sony HD and a RCA CRT in another room. I have replaced the Sony with a Mitsubishi HD and moved the sony to replace the RCA. I transferred the coax from the RCA input to Sony antenna input and then the cable input. I have cylced through the Sony inputs and do...

Dish installed my 622 about 20 months ago. The HDMI cable is plugged into the 622 and the other end into the TV. However, in the cable between the the HDMI ends is another connection, apparently a male & female connection. It has continued to work properly since installation. I am just...

Thanks for all the input. It seems my Sony may be a lemon, but Sony is still one of the better brands on the market. I agree that they are not at the quality level they once were, but their prices are also now more in line with the competition. The sony KDS 60a3000 appears to be one of the...

Went out to look for a replacement in the 60" + range. Liked the Samsung HLT 6187 and the Mitsubishi WD 65733 among others. Then I did some research. There is too much information available on the internet! Every set I check out I find someone bashing it for one reason or another. Even...

Bought a Sony 60 inch LCD kdf-60wf655 in December 2004. It has an excellent picture, friends with other brands comment that the picture is sharper than theirs. However, at about 14 months the thing died, needed a power board (?) replacement, about $400.00. Fortunately, my credit card...

It appears the $20.00 HD fee not mentioned. I cannot address the change of dish issue but others surely can, especially if you mention what dish you currently have and where you are located.
