    Not so. The ViP622 has a new case. The differences are easy to see in this photo.

    I couldn't find a photo of the new ViP 622, so I made this [poor] screen capture. Hopefully we will get a better look during/after CES.

    Dish DVR vs. Comcast DVR

    Oh, I almost forgot this... Sometimes when you press a button on the Moto, there is a delay. Then you end up doing things you didn't intend to do.

    Dish DVR vs. Comcast DVR

    We've had both a 721 and Comcast Dual-tuner DVR for almost a year (started with single tuner... they let me switch it out when dual tuner bnecame avail.). My opinions: The Moto is not as intuitive. It is somewhat clunky compared to the 721. Switching tuners is done with one button (you must...

    Does 942 require a land line connection?

    cruzmisl: I don't have a 942, I have a 522... but I think they are alike in this respect: The functionality is all there with or without a phone line. Unlike a Stand-alone TiVo, the phone line is not used for guide data. Dish Network uses the phone line to verify that you are WHO and WHERE...

    Will Dish carry the Logo Network?

    Thanks Slammin! You saved many of us from trying to put it into words. Just don't expect some folks to move into the 21st century and accept people who are different than them. Progress takes time, and has always been resisted by those whose comfortable beliefs are challenged. I'm sure the...

    If you had a choice:Satellite or Cable

    If I could choose WHAT cable carried, I would probably go with cable. You don't need anything on your building, you can easily split it to several TVs (analog channels), they will rent you the DVR affordably, and you can get your broadband internet on the same bill. Since I can't choose the...

    [COMCAST] Sound MUTED during program record MOTO 6412 DVR

    I can't offer any help, except to assure you that you are not alone. My comcast HD-DVR has done that since day-1. I keep meaning to ask them what is up with that. I will be exchanging my son's Digital STB for a second DVR, and I will ask them in person (although I doubt the friendly gals...
