    Golf, Soccer, NASCAR and badminton are one of the crappiest sports ever?

    I must say, I never thought golf was really a sport until I started playing 3 years ago. Before that I played basketball religiously- and thought it was tough. However, golf takes alot of skill and actually takes stamina.

    multi-tap or predictive texting...?

    Maybe I will check out that tutorial...I send 30-40 a day all multi-tap. T9 never gets the correct word when I try it- plus I have gotten SO fast at MT. My brother is a manager for Verizon and he swears by T9...we'll see.

    Getting Dishnetwork WIHTOUT a SSN

    "I thought the $50 fee was waived for only providing the last 4 of the social security number. Dish Network accepted it for one of my customers a few weeks back. Am I going to take a $50 hit in my commission now? Customer REFUSED to give the whole social security number." __________________...

    remote control

    You need an UHF remote...as opposed to the IR that you are now using. If there is not one available for your receiver, you can purchase a IR/UHF converter. You can probably find one at DishStore.net.

    The new format looks very nice. It is easy to use and easy on the eyes. Great job!

    Direct Or Dish That Is The Question?

    Most people on this forum will tell you that DISH HD blows DirecTV, and anybody else, out of the water. I sell both DISH and DirecTV and I agree. 30 channels+ compared to 10 or 12? It's an easy choice. The picture quality is generally better on DISH.

    Advice for a friend looking to sub

    DishFamily is as low as it gets....if you refer him with a ClubDish card he gets $0 activation + a $50 credit on his first bill (as opposed to $50 activation with a $50 credit). So he makes $50. You get 10 $5 credits.

    Dish retailer or Dish direct.

    I don't know....I am a retailer and we don't even touch upgrades because there is no money to be made....if somebody asks me about upgrading I give them the DISH 1-800 #....

    Dish Offering Internet?

    Last Thursday DISH launched the new GetConnected portal for retailers to offer DSL. Has anybody else tried using this? Any luck? It seems to me like everything else when they first launch it- crap. I have typed in addresses that I KNOW have DSL available and it tells me there are no services...

    I need your guys help????

    That's weird. I am a retailer and that doesn't make sense. The 1 year contract- yes. But for a promotion? I have heard of two separate contracts; 1 from DISH and 1 from a retailer if you went through one, but something is fishy.

    My 622 can record 3 shows at once...

    So could you also watch OTA while recording 2 off of SAT? Or record off OTA and record 1 SAT and watch SAT?
