    HR34-700 Services Ports?

    Two years ago I switched from Dish to Comcast. Now I'm back on SAT TV (Directv this time). I notice that the HR34-700 has a "services" setup page, without much info on what those services are. So, first question... What are these services? Second.... Do I need to open firewall ports...

    Appeals Court Finds Echostar in Contempt in TIVO Case

    This was an appeal to a three judge appellate panel. Echostar is free to (and probably will) appeal to the full appellate court, and then to the Supremes if necessary. I would assume that a request for a stay of the order would be part of that.

    DISH Network announces Earnings

    Since this was announced before market open on a monday, I'm assuming Dish thinks the numbers are good, otherwise they would have released it after close on a Friday.

    Never got that on a dish box (yet), but I did when the hard disk in the DVR I had from Comcast failed.

    East Coast Snow = Outage?

    20" here near Blacksburg. No loss of Dish signal, though my neighbor had to clear his DirecTV dish several times.

    Tivo Statement on Echostar Lawsuit

    I wonder if the PTO rejected the claims based on the Bilski ruling. If so, that would be great news for the entire software industry.

    DISH - TiVO Case: Stay granted pending appeal

    ...those who do not know, Bilski basically stated that software patents do not exist unless the software is tied to a particular machine. Like the *original* Supreme Court ruling that established software patents, Bilski basically said that the software must be an integral part of the machine...

    They were added to the spot beam on Ciel-2 yesterday, but there was no announcment concerning them on the Twitter HDTuesday thing yesterday. If the Roanoke HD Locals go live today, I will be very pleasantly surprised, especially since Lost is on tonight.

    I actually went to the trouble of checking if D* had the Roanoke HD locals today, even though I hate that company worse than Comcast. They don't. Guess I'll stay with dish a while longer.

    Did Lynchburg/Roanoke HD Local get turned on

    I'm currently picking up 129 just fine, but have no line-of-sight to 61.5 thanks to terrain/neighbors trees, so I'm hoping that if they have to put them on 61.5, they are mirrored and not moved.
