Noticed a few weeks back my 921 got a software update. One of the main things I noticed that they updated (like the 508, 721, etc.) now you get a prompt before changing a channel that has been paused, instead of losing everything if you accidentally hit a channel and it changes. This was well...

Cool stuff! French gadget site Mobinaute got their hands on the as-yet-unreleased Archos AV700, the plus-size media player with a 7-inch screen. There’s not a whole lot in the post you didn’t already know—USB Host, 100GB hard drive, etc.—but since it’s likely going to be a fairly...

We rarely get to see examples of good experiences with DISH dispatches so I thought I'd share my latest. I live at an apartment complex who hired a company to power wash the sides of all the buildings. Needless to say, these EEEDIOTS came down on my antenna with their lift and totally...

So I've been running my 721 in the living room and recently upgraded to the 921 that so many of us love. I've been using a DP34 and running 1 line to a wall outlet connecting to my bedroom, running a 508 receiver. So I'm thinking, hmm...maybe I can save a 5$ per/mo receiver fee and just run coax...

Ok, I don't really wanna start this age old argument again. However, would like to know what you guys prefer to run your 921's at and why? Just curious.

Ok, I've seen endless threads on peoples gripes with this receiver. Now, would like to hear from some folks who actually like theirs and have good things to say about it. Since they are around 500$ now I went ahead and ordered one and hoping I didn't mess up really bad. Would like to hear from...

Sorry to ask this newbie question but since 921's are so cheap, I'm gonna go ahead and replace my 721 and wanted to know if I could still use my DP34 or do I need to get another switch? Thanks guys.

Anyone here have any experience with products like this? I see there are a handful out there, but are they worth anything? http://www.adstech.com/products/HDUP1500/intro/HDUP1500intro.asp?pid=HDUP1500

My current setup is a Dish 508 in the living room and a Dish 301 in the bedroom. I'm looking to put a 721 in the living room and and put the 508 in the bedroom and ditch the 301. Would I be better off going with a switch (to utilize 2 tuner capability of the 721 and 1 for the 508) or just...

Well, There are a few 921's up on ebay. Unfortunately, they are priced at $1400 with "Buy it Now" and charging 95$ shipping. Can you say RAPE? 921 on ebay

I was just checking out some 522's on ebay and one auction says the following: "THIS UNIT CAN ONLY BE ACTIVATED BY DIGITAL HOME ADVANTAGE (DHA) CUSTOMERS THAT HAVE A LOAN EQUIPMENT PLAN." Is this true? I assumed I could purchase the 522 and just keep it on the regular plan I have now...

Hey guys. I've been wanting to pickup a 921 for awhile now. First there was a short supply of them due to high demand and low production. However now I am hearing bits and pieces of a Q/A hold on these receivers and they are simply unobtainable unless you get one from a scalper on ebay for an...

Ok guys. I need to get some DVR action going as I really miss having it. But seeing the DVD recorders getting cheaper everyday. Do any of you have experience with both of them? I'm curious if the DVD recorders use an interface similar to DVR or TIVO, or are they basically like a VCR. Program and...

Hey guys. Hoping some of you Satty gurus here can help a brotha out. I currently have Dishnetwork with the DISH 811 HD receiver. I would love to get in on some DVR/PVR action but I simply cannot afford the 921. Is it feasible for me to pickup a nice 508 or compatibile PVR unit and run to a...
