    New 1080p HDTVs compared

    I bought a Mits 57" 1080P DLP almost a month ago. I went to the store to buy the Sony, but there is no comparison between the two. I got the Mits NIB for $2400.00 out the door. This TV replaced a 16 year old Mitsubishi 35" whose tube simply died. This is a fantastic TV--easy to set up and...

    Hdmi ?

    I was just wondering, is there any difference in HDMI cables? I can get one from Circuit City for $140 (Monster Cable)or I can get a Phillips for $40? Both look flimsy and neither have screws to keep it attached like on a computer monitor. Is there any difference other than the $100?

    921 Owners Unite

    What you are going through is exactly why I left E* after almost ten years. I went through it also and after three calls to people that could care less, I dumped E*. I have D* now and absolutely love it. But of course, you know what they say about opinions!:) E* is ramming it home to its...

    Switching from Dish to Direct.

    I went through the website and got installed yesterday. Got the R15 DVR for $99 with an instant rebate of $99. Scheduled the install online also. Completely no hassel and everything went smooth as a baby's butt yesterday. :up

    Got installed yesterday......

    I switched from E* to D* after being a sub with E* since 1996. I kept asking myself all day Saturday, "Why did I wait so long"? It started with the installer for D*. With E* I lost two days work waiting on installers that never came to fix what they had screwed up when they installed us...

    New Dish customers read these existing customer posts

    Thanks Walt.... Walt, you have hit E* dead-bang. I am one of the long-time E* subs that is switching to D*. Where I live, DBS is the only option and I have been the lone E* sub for miles around. Cable doesn't run to the sticks and FIOS will never get out this far. I have been a satellite...

    DVR Question.....

    I'm getting installed 4 Feb and need to know if the coax coming from the wall can be split to feed both inputs on the DVR? Can it be run from a splitter at all? PLEASE tell me I don't need two coax cables coming from the dish! :confused:

    Bye Bye Dish.........

    Because........ It's the principle of the thing with me. They can give away the store for a new customer, but someone with a good payment record and customer loyalty can't get a break? E* is going to leasing anyway, so what is the difference? Besides, all the crap we have gone through...

    Bye Bye Dish.........

    I have been an E* sub since June of 1996. I have waited to upgrade to HD and a DVR until things settled down just a bit. Still waiting until MPEG 4 is done, I called last night to upgrade my legacy receiver to a plain Jane 311. Sure the CSR said. You've been with us a long time and you qualify...

    Sign up now and upgrade later?

    No........ What I want to get an idea of is what it's going to cost me to upgrade to HD-DVR when I do get the HDTV later this summer. I don't want to hear I am locked into a contract for X years and can't upgrade at all. :)

    Picture Quality D* or E*?

    I have read that E* has better picture quality across the board than D*. Can someone explain that? I thought that with a digital picture, you either had a pcture or you didn't and the picture you got is the best you will get. Sorry if this is a dumb question to you tech guys. I'm just trying to...

    So, sign up for D* now.........

    Or wait until 1 March? I had decided to switch from E*, picked up the phone to make the call and thought I'd check the board first. Glad I did!:) Should I wait or will it make a difference? I am getting the HD-DVR when I do sign up.

    I'm done with Dish........

    I've been a sub since 1996. We moved two years ago and have rented while building our house. Dish went with us. They changed us to a different set of locals. Since then we have had rain fade every time it rains. Service tech said it was the 105 location and the fact we had to pick up the three...

    Dish Upgrade

    Dish Upgrade---Need your help! I currently have an old 4900 receiver :river and a SuperDish and I want to upgrade to the latest HD receiver. I am considering the 942 but I wonder, will it be compatible with the MPEG 4 when they go to that? Am I wasting my money by upgrading now or should I wait...
