Thanks, set up an appointment for them to install the other dish. At least they waived the charges.

I'm speaking to Dish tech support and he's telling me that I need 2 dishes in order to get local HD in Greensboro NC. I was under the impression that because I already have the 1000.2 dish that I was all set for local hd. Anyone getting hd in this area without having the monstrosity of 2 dishes...

This story was poorly researched and an example of incompetent journalism. The obvious question here is when did Toshiba start setting prices for movies? Did anyone ask this before spreading this nonsense about? People, think before you post...phew.

Everyone takes something to enhance their job performance. Think about it...how productive would most of us be without daily doping up on caffeine to push ourselves beyond what our bodies would naturally be capable of? Don't be so judgemental. The use of drugs to enhance work performance are...

Why would all the HD DVD guys go to netflix if Blockbuster has HD DVD online just as netflix has?

Great match that...but the bowl off concept is crap.

Ok, this "move" thing intrigues me. I don't get HD locals either but there are two cities close by one about 60 miles east and the other about 85 miles south of me that get them. Do I just make up an address and as long as I give them the right zip code for one of these cities I'm in business?

Sure...but temporary could mean that feature won't be available for the next 5 years. There is no time limit on temporary.

How about the ability to move my usb drive between the two 622's on my account without the 3 move limit. That way I can record something in the living room and watch it in the bedroom or vice versa.

Is there any chance that their HD version would actually carry news instead of propaganda like their SD version does now? If so count me in as a supporter.

Well that sucks! So even if you have two 622's on your account you're stuck to using it on one after 2 switches? One of the main reasons for using this for me was to enable me to watch stuff in the bedroom that I recorded in the living room and vice versa. WTF!

Shweeet

Anyone get the dishcomm to work between two recievers plugged into surge protectors? We get some bad storms here in the summertime and I don't want to risk my 622's by just plugging them into the wall.

I'm in Greensboro NC and I just need one dish (1000.2) to get all the HD dish is offering.

Thanks, found it as soon as i posted...:o
