Hello, I am looking at moving to Dish (currently with Fios), in part because of the new Hopper with Sling. I would like to get a hands on and play with the new DVR. Does anyone know of any retail locations/chains where I can find this? I checked the Dish website and emailed customer...

Steve, I live in Bethesda and have my Fios installation scheduled for today. The only ways I know of hearing that it's available in your area are to check the Verizon website and/or when you start getting Fios TV fliers in the mail. The only deal I know of is that you get $5 off when you get...

Thanks. Keep the faith rffjim. I live somewhat near you (Maryland) and even though it took a while (Verizon actually had to take the county to court to get them to approve fios tv), from what i've heard, it sounds like it'll be worth it. Plus, getting your house wired for fiber optics for free...

spoken like a true hypocrite considering how you've jumped around based on your signature (hello pot) of 3 moves in the last few years. for the record (not that i should have to justify myself to you), fios tv wasn't even around when i re-upped. i gave dtv a chance and their new hd dvr (from...

Fios is available where i live so better service for the same price. I was unhappy with DTV's failure to really do much with their next gen HD DVR. But mostly it's the better pq with Fios (plus, i don't need sunday ticket)

Hello, After over 2 years I have to leave DTV. I am wondering how to do so without getting billed (ie getting out of my 2 year contract I signed when I got the HD Tivo last year)? I seem to recall discussion about this a while ago. From what I have been told, I have a $300 termination fee...

disregard this message-i forgot to put auto notification in my first post, and this was the only way i saw to get it from this thread.

Hello, Wondering if anyone can help me based on their Dish experience. I just called customer service and they told me they only allow 1 HD DVR (622) install per household. They said that if I wanted an additional HD DVR install I would have to buy it separately and either install myself or...

I was actually able to see the pics-looks pretty cool. But would love to see the video. Anyone have a way to get around the login requirement (not sure why it's happening to me)?

Thanks for posting the link? Any chance you or anyone can post the pictures or provide a password? When I try to download the pics (need to see a larger view), I can't do so as, even when I try to log in (I tried to register to no avail). If anyone can post the pics and help with accessing the...

Can you post those screen shots (of the programming guide)? When are they rolling it out (this summer?)I went to the Verizon experience store over the weekend to check out the DVR. Not that impressed, but if they're rolling out something soon in the way of upgraded DVR, I'm very interested...

Hello, Recently i was talking to a sales rep about pip on the 622 and he said pip is not dependent on the TV, that the PIP on the 622 is just splitting the signals. Is this how it works? Any info about PIP on the 622 would be great. I had PIP on a TV and loved it (granted, pre-dvr days). Do...

comcast rsn for the mid-atlantic (i'm in the dc area).

i guess i would be leasing the equipment (through a Radio Shack deal). I'm looking at getting the vip 622. and i'd probably get the package with 180 or 200 channels (whichever one gets me my rsn (comcast sportsnet)) in my package. could i just get hd locals with this for $5? thanks

Hi, Interested in signing up for Dish and trying to figure out if I can sign up for HD locals only (for $5) and not for the HD package ($20)? Is this possible? I'm already planning on signing up for locals, but I'm not sure the $20 is worth it for the HD package, especially when DTV's HD...
