Nope, still $200, but I manage to get them to give me $10 off a month for 12 months, and a waived tech visit fee (since they require a tech install for the 922). That at least brings the cost to only $80.

Yes, the Dish Sling Adapter only slings the TV2 output.

Well in case anyone is wondering what I ended up deciding. I first scheduled to get a 722 upgrade based on the feedback I got from people, but at the last moment I said screw it, and switched it up for the 922. It's been a couple days now and I must say I'm glad I did. I currently have my 922...

Well I have a 622 right now, so I can't comment on either of them. I have an order in for the 922 to be installed next week but maybe I should switch it to a 722 w/Sling. If I did that I may go GoogleTV as well. I was just thinking long term the 922 would be better, but it seems no one has...

So what exactly are the reasons the 722/Sling is better then the 922 (besides cheaper)? Is the 922 really that unusable? What exactly is wrong with it? Does the 922's built-in sling not perform as good as the 722 w/Sling? Thanks for any details you can provide!

I was told there wasn't an extra fee for the 922, so maybe they got rid of it with the release of the sling adapter.

I actually just did a live online chat with their customer service, they transfered me to a customer loyalty specialist. They wouldn't give me the 922 for $100, but instead will give me $10/month off for 12 months ($120) plus waive the $95 tech charge. Apparently they have no clue about...

How are you liking the 922? Has it been pretty stable with the software updates? TV2 working good?

Thanks - I may have to give that a try. So does the 922 require a tech to come over to install it? That'll be nice to get the tech charge waive in addition - I also need them to come over anyways because my Dish is whacked out and can no longer tune most of the non-HD channels (loss signal)...

I have a 622, currently out of contract, and I can't decide which upgrade option to go with. I do have a 2nd TV and use the TV2 feature of my 622. I do not need the OTA adapter. I heard the 922's new software update enable TV2, so now that's an option for me. So here are the two options...

Nice - since you have both boxes, which would you recommend right now if you could have one: 722k/Sling Adapter/Google TV or 922

Yes, Dish is offering free upgrades to the 722k (at least they are for me) - it's $200 for the 922.

I'm actually in the same boat as you - I have a 622, currently out of contract, and looking for upgrade options. I do use the TV2 feature of my 622, but I heard the 922's new software update will enable that - although I haven't heard any confirmations yet of people receiving this update, so...

I really wish Google would just come out with their own full fledged TV service so I can dump satellite/cable all together. Google - get on this!

Scott - do you know if future customers would get a 2nd remote by default with the update, like the 622 & 722 models? I assume it supports RF mode for tv2 remotes like the previous models.

So no update on the 922 (S110) update? I'm curious if it fixed alot of bugs, and if the tv2 is indeed working. Still holding on to my 622, waiting to upgrade. So will the 922 now support a 2nd RF remote for TV2, and will they start shipping them with the receivers?

I wonder since the Sling HD Extender looks like it's being canceled that maybe Dish's plan will be to eventually update Google TV to have the Sling receiver software. I guess it would get the Sling app eventually when Google finally adds the Android Market to Google TV...

Thanks Scott. So even if they enable TV2 on the 922? So is it because the UI on the 922 is no good and/or because of poor quality from the built-in Sling? Maybe I'll go 722/Sling Adapter/Google TV then - although I guess I'll need to make some room in my media cabinet...

I could have sworn I saw it a day or so ago with the "Coming Soon" tag, along with the Sling Adapter.

Oh, I just noticed today Dish Network removed the Sling HD Extender (Catcher) from their page. Does this mean it's officially canceled? Bummer... Guess I'll be sticking with SD on my TV2...

922 vs 722k w/ Sling Adapter Hello Scott, I currently have the 622, with 2 TVs, and I'm looking to upgrade. Now I heard the rumor that the upcoming software update for 922 will enable TV2, which is I need (well really I want the Sling Catcher). With that said, would you recommend getting...
