    Dish Anywhere / Android 5.0 issues

    As Scott mentioned, there is no approval process for Android. Also there has been a developer's preview of Android 5 out since June so no excuse to be taking this long to fix.

    CHEAP TABLETS FOR TRAVEL???

    The nooks are being discontinued, so that's either an opportunity to get an even cheaper tablet or bad because you won't get updates. In my opinion, the best tablet for the money is the Google Nexus 7. $199 for a pure google experience and access to the play store can't be beat. You could...

    Samsung Galaxy S4 software features: Ahead of the game or gimmicky?

    Gimmicky. The features are thrown together in a disjointed and cartoon looking OS. Samsung is riding the wave of the S3 success right now. Hopefully they will learn from HTC and put in useful features and a polished user experience. HTC built Sense 5 from the ground up for the One. Samsung...

    For those that have had Dish & Direct........need honest opinion please

    I did the same. The only thing the Genie has over the hopper is 5 tuners, but the guide is terribly slow, does not have channel logos (making scrolling for a channel hard), and searching for programs and movies is frustrating. I would only switch if you are wanting the programming or sports...

    Was DISH Robbed at CES?

    New commercial: "Which company has a DVR so good that the broadcaster banned it from their competition? What don't they want you to know? That you have control of what you watch..."

    New dish customer Hate the User Interface

    I have to agree about the user interface, but DTV isn't any better. I switched from the 922 to the HR34 recently and feel like i went backwards on the UI (but jumped ahead in many other areas). The 922 guide and settings interface is great. At least Dish has a new receiver coming out with the...

    What would you pay for the Hopper ( Dish's new Multi room DVR) ??

    Even with the HR34 you have to pay the $3 for MRV and additional receiver fees.

    Sorry to say I am leaving Dish after 11 years

    Actually, I just switched and only have one receiver. I have the HR34 with 5 tuners and only pay only the $7/month DVR fee. I relate very much to the poster above about being duped with the 922. In fact, mine crashed hard which made me look at directv again. The annoying bugs that are still...

    Questions about the new XiP Receivers?

    I agree. The 922 is the new user interface that they will continue to develop on and we should see improvements. Or at least that's what I hope. :)

    Tiger Woods takes a stab at ticket prices at the new Yankee Stadium..

    They don't sell out - that's the point of this thread. Yeah, it bugs me too that someone with star power would say anything to help kids. :confused:

    iphone vs winmo

    Well said Don... I have to laugh everytime I see the Apple commercials touting all the wonderful "apps" that have been free on Windows Mobile for years. The iPhone OS is a much slicker interface, but has many limits for a power user. Microsoft is so far behind in that area, but slowly...

    ATT and IPHONE hate current users

    No other carrier has the iPhone (yet), and no other phone on AT&T has the same requirement. Connect the dots.

    ATT and IPHONE hate current users

    The Palm Pre is $550 without an upgrade. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples (no pun intended). The upgrade pricing for the iPhone is much lower than what you stated.

    HTC Fuze or iPhone???

    Technically speaking, you are right that it works without a special plan. However, if they catch you doing it without the tethering plan they can terminate your service or charge you fees. It's also worth nothing that the Touch Pro 2 (newer version of the Fuze) is set to be released on...

    HTC Fuze or iPhone???

    the restrictions are in the TOS with AT&T, so it covers all phones. Also, the Fuze is 6.1, not 6.0.

    The worst customer service I have ever experienced.

    Why does this need a new thread, especially when I had to look up your other thread to know what you were talking about?

    why all the spotbeam activity

    The only people complaining would be people who shouldn't be getting the channel anyway. :) It's much more cost effective for Dish to spot beam channels that only certain areas of the country should see anyway. They also only have certain licenses/frequencies and can reuse them in different...
