They're not saying that today. The website still says a triple-LNB dish. There were rumors a while back that this years NFL Sunday Ticket SF would be MPEG4. That's going to be a tough pill to swallow for many if they don't have their MPEG4 HD-DVR out yet. They'd have to swap out every NFL-ST-SF subscriber with a new dish and new receivers before the start of the NFL season. I think they wanted to, but I don't see how it can still be done in time now.

Hey Bob,
If you recall, I remember the same ideas coming up at this time last year, there was debate about D* making ST MPEG4 LAST year and could not get equipment out in time ..... As we all know the MPEG4 HD did not come out prior to the football season.
I think part of the ST features was being able to have games downloaded to your HD- DVR... Which STILL is not available.
Personally, give me the ST in HD and (I already pay for the HD Package) and skip the Fantasy garbage, I could care less, it just clutters up my TV screen.
I have a 60" HD and would like 60"s on my TV, not 1/3rd of it with other garbage filling it up.
also, if you pay for the HD pack, and sub to HBO you get HBO- HD.....
So why is the HD not available without an addl. charge ????
I wish D* had an answer, other than $ ........
Sorry about the rant.
