Did anyone notice that it's not compatible with the Dish 1000.2 LNBF ?? It can't be compatible, the Dish 1000.2 doesn't exist in the real world... :) Laters, Mikef5

So is there a reason that it's taken about 8 months to show it again and not have a production model out ??? Is there a parts shortage or something holding it up ?? I'm serious about dropping Comcast but I would like to have that reciever to feed 2 of my 4 HD sets. But what I'd really like to...

Wasn't this shown at the last CEDIA show and didn't they say it would be out soon then ??? Didn't they show the 1000.2 Dish at the last CEDIA show and say it was going to be out soon ??? I'm begining to think Dish's soon is like what Comcast is telling us 550 MHz areas about when they will...

OK, let's make it real clear..... Can you lease 2 VIP 622's ??? Yes or No ??? Not trying to be snippy but Dish needs to clear this confusion up with the receiver/tuner statements. Laters, Mikef5

Rachel Ray will have her own show on CBS this Sept. Laters, Mikef5

Will the 1000 plus run with a dpp34 switch or does it "require" a dpp44 switch ?? The reason I ask is, I only don't need sat 118 just 119, 110 and 129 and I'd like to avoid the 2 dish set up. It looks like the dish 1000.2 is MIA and I'm willing to buy my own plus dish to see if it helps with the...

Does anyone know what the requirements are to get a Dish 1000 plus from E* ?? I know if your locals are on sat 119k then they have to install a 1000 plus but what else would get it ?? Laters, Mikef5

Claude, I was just on the Dishstore web site and even though they list the 1000 plus dish in the side bar area, when you click on the link it doesn't show the dish at all. Is it shown somewhere else on their site ??? If so, could you provide a link to it ?? Laters, Mikef5

So do you track the shuttle with those ???? :p;) Actually, I've given up waiting on the new dishes to come out, I can always upgrade later. The only hold up now is Dish getting FSN-BayArea HD or the ending of the baseball season, which ever comes first. I just can't live without the Giants (...

Any new info on when the VIP 222 will be released ???? So far it seems to be MIA ....... Laters, Mikef5

Racheal Ray is going to be doing a national network show in Sept. some time. Oprah is the money behind the show so I would guess it's going to be on ABC. Laters, Mikef5

I'd like to know when they'll be available also, it's one of the things that I'm waiting for before I drop cable and switch to Dish. Laters, Mikef5

Does anyone have an update on the availablity of the new dish 1000.2 or any recent info on it ???? Laters, Mikef5

So they are spooling software for a receiver that isn't on the market yet ??? I would hazzard a guess these will be available soon ??? Inquiring minds would like to know :) Laters, Mikef5

Sounds alot like he's confusing the new HomeZone boxes that are coming out. Laters, Mikef5
