    HD quality of different providers is really hard to find

    Oh yeah, and as for anyone that says Directv has better picture quality, I disagree. I just switched to Dish Network from Directv and was totally stressed out about picture quality because of comments by people on several forums that claim Directv has a better picture. Having had both now, if...

    HD quality of different providers is really hard to find

    Very sluggish, in fact I had two different ones and they were both incredibly slow. Sometimes the menu would take 10 seconds to come up after pushing the button. In the 2.5 years I had an HR24 it was slow slow slow. Now I have the Hopper, it is blazing fast.

I saw a cheaper harmony remote on Amazon for $29 with the color coded buttons (red, blue, green etc.) similar to the dish remote. I may give that one a try.

    HD quality of different providers is really hard to find

    I just switched back to Charter for TV after having Directv for almost 3 years. When I had Charter before we had an old tube TV. Now we have a Panny 54G20. The picture quality was stunning with Directv, then I switched to Charter to save money. I had NO IDEA how terrible their HD picture quality...
