    New DIRECTV Promo starting July 19th

    I have this dilema too... what if they have higher fees then (i.e. the $5 off for 12 month promotion is gone).. I don't know all the details to compare... I think ordering now and planning to install on the 20th or later would be useful because you could call in on the 19th when the new promos...

    SNY Gone Tomorrow? (It's Gone!)

    About to be dumping dish.. I give it another 30 days... when my time warner Roadrunner special runs out! ;) Time Warner has a new special in NY for $79 for 1 year for digital cable and high speed internet. Without SNY, MSG, YES, Disney HD and others I can't take it anymore.. Living in NY under...

    Dish & NY Sports

    I understand why Dish made a business decision not to get YES or keep MSG, but if they don't want the regular packages to go up, why not just offer it in the RSN or ala carte even? It sucks that I have to keep Time Warner in Buffalo to watch the Sabres (in HD on QAM at least I can get the...

    Any good, cheap HD cameras?

    I was in the same situation with a new child on the way.. the best camera for the money seemed to be the Canon HG10. I found it on eBay for $400 as a refurbished item from Tigerdirect.. you can get 8% back if you go through Bing.com - search for camcorder then use the eBay link... there is info...

    NFL Redzone Free this Sunday...

    We probably will... just endless teasing us...dangling the carrot we cannot have! (Unless of course we sign up for a more expensive package! :) I would pay $12.99 for this channel with Absolute! :)

    Multi Sports pack for Dish HD Absolute

    Yep, I added the SuperStation package several months ago for some Mets/Yankees games and had no problem. I plan on removing it later this month! :) I tried adding the Sport package without success however... it should not even be there taunting us poor Absolute subscribers! ;)

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Unless of course you have Absolute! :( I'd pay $9.99 for the package with Absolute! :) They do allow the Superstation package which shows MLB (Yankees/Mets) and preseason football... I would also gladly exchange that for the multi-sport, or just the NFL RedZone alone! ;)

    Florida Marlins keeping their games off MLB Extra Innings?

    I was in Miami for the weekend after a nice relaxing Bahamas cruise! We went to the Friday night Marlins/Rockies game, and oh my, they didn't announce the attendance but there must have been 3-5,000 people!! Our Buffalo Bisons get as many or more fans! You think they would want to have as many...

    Erin Andrews was "Peeped" at Hotel

    Isn't it her fault though? If she was in a hotel room, naked, with the drapes open... I mean some common sense would tell you to close the drapes right? Which floor was she on? Could you see her from the pool? Who is she going to sue, does she know the perp? Too little information.

    BBCAHD.....

    Dish... Please, if you add BBCA today, think of us little people on the Absolute plan.. After all the A in BBCA stands for Absolute!! (doesn't it?!) C'mon, you added channels this year to a plan rumored to have ended upgrades in 2008! So please, please, add it!

    Rumor Alert!

    Could it be soon? ;)

    Rumor Alert!

    Is it a sports channel, movie channel or general cable channel? Is it YES or a SuperStation upgrade to HD? ;) Oh great, I am *so* thrilled that QVC will be added to Absolute and BBCA probably won't! Can we get that switched around?

    Sling Media Launches SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone and iPod touch

    Was excited about this until I heard it was gonna be $30! That is insane compared to other device Slingplayer costs... also WiFi only? I'll pass! You can jailbreak your phone to use the Slingplayer on 3G but I don't really wanna do that.

    Rumor NO MORE!, SpeedHD, FX HD & More THIS WEEK! (NOW LIVE)

    Sigh... now FX HD not being on Absolute does kind of bother me...will it make me abandon Absolute and move to a Turbo HD package? Probably not... I can still watch most FX shows on Hulu... but cool to have more HD programming on a grandfathered package!

    Superstation package - will it go HD in June?

    Curious if they SD feeds will stay on the Dish SS package once everyone goes digital... and why is WGN the only 'superstation' that is in HD?

    HD Absolute - how long?

    Channels in Red are ones which are not included in your package... it is odd because all the RSNs do not show up at all for me, you think they would be in Red... or at least all the Red channels wouldn't show up in the guide at all! The Superstations include KTLA, WWOR, WSBK, WPIX, KWGN, WGN...

    HD Absolute - how long?

    Was able to add it online, it confirmed that Absolute was still my programming package after I ordered the Superstation pack. Oddly, it did not give me the choice at first...only the RSN pack.. added that then got an error that I needed one of the 'colored' packages! (lol) - went back and the...

    Can anything be added Absolute besides the locals? Can I get the superstation package?

    HD Absolute - how long?

    +36 ! Another Absolutely happy HD customer... I will echo that I would gladly trade BETJ+CMT for VH1+MTV but...eh...for the price I am happy.

    SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone submitted...now we wait

    I have a classic Slingbox which works just fine for my needs, why would I want to get a Solo or HD Sling just to watch on the tiny iPhone screen.. I am pretty pissed that they want me to buy a $30 app then a $150+ box to use that app... I wonder if Sling were still on its own (sans Dish) if it...
