    Sling adapter, Slingbox question

    Dish really needs to update this app to support video out. The only reason I increased my bill (to top 200) was to be eligible for the "free" sling adapter and hook it up in the family wagon. The Sling Mobile app allows it but I can't get it to work with the adapter. Anyone know how to...

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    I talked to 3 different CSRs. First knew what I was talking about but hung up on me. Second one had no idea what I was talking about and kept telling me that I was 'lucky' because I have a 722 and could use the adapter (then hung up on me!) The last CSR told me she didn't know about it...

    Dish DVR for Iphone

    Maybe it's just me, but I'd welcome an official app. The website is optimized nicely for the phone, but it is a little awkward to navigate. Plus, if they had a native app, many of the graphics wouldn't need to be downloaded and it would make the app zippier. It would be nice to swipe to...

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Yes! I was in AbsoluteHD so I waited until last Sunday night to hear what people thought of it before changing packages. Man, I'm glad I did! I had a few friends and family over who are fantasy footballers like myself and it was a blast watching all the action from around the league. Plus...

    time to say goodbye to AbsoluteHD???

    I bit the bullet and dropped AbsoluteHD after one year. It was great having a $50 bill each month, but in the end, I missed having a "normal" package. The inability to add the RedZone Channel to the package was pretty much the icing on the cake. I wasn't in a contract for some years now and...

    Should I upgrade my Iphone 3g to 3GS?

    I'm definitely not bashing the iPhone. I'm a proud owner of two 2G and two 3G iPhones! 1. I'm bitter at ATT sucking 2. Just don't think the new iPhone is worth it unless you can get it for $199 (no upgrade charge) The upgrades in general are great... but lackluster. It kinda makes...

    Should I upgrade my Iphone 3g to 3GS?

    Couldn't have said it better myself, Scott. Current iPhone is supposed to do 3.6Mbps or something and I don't think I've ever seen half that... AT&T really dropped the ball. Word is that they have to manually switch all current iPhone users to MMS. How asinine is that?!?

    24 Day 7 Discussion Thread

    I was expecting a bigger mid-season "reveal".... But I guess after you have a corrupt president and a nuclear explosion, the shock and awe is a lot harder to come by. I really dug the calm before the storm last night with Jack & Tony sitting on the steps in front of the Washington Monument...

    Favorite All-Time Meal?

    Fresh Brats/Hungarian sausages grilled and accompanied by homemade potato & cheese perogies sauteed with sweet onions... Add a good microbrew and enjoy... (and another for desert!)

    What Spices are in your Cabnet?

    Because of it's subtlety, it can be used in a wide range of applications. I couldn't imagine not having any in my cabinet. I prefer not to cover my food in too many complicated flavors. It may just be the bohunk in me. :p
