    Best Bluetooth Headphones?

    I highly recommend the WP-350's. Excellent sound, excellent battery life, and they are quite affordable. I keep a pair at home and at the office.

    FreedomPop Free Internet Review

    It appears the mobile 2GB is only free the first month. Its $17.99 a month after that. The only free plan is 500MB for mobile. Thats highway robbery for 2GB. :-)

    "Reported attack site"...

    Ditto here. Details. What happened when Google visited this site? Of the 92 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 8 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2012-12-23, and the last...

    All New DIRECTV.COM

    Are they ever going to allow us to manage DVR content? They need to give us full DVR management via directv.com. :-)

    HOPPER DEMONSTRATION VIDEO!

    It is probably all on the same filesystem. The OS just moves a link to the file and does not physically move the actual file. Hopper and Joey have me drooling. I wonder if DirecTV will try and match PrimeTime.

    HOPPER DEMONSTRATION VIDEO!

    Stupid question. How does the Hopper record all primetime shows with one tuner? There are usually 2-3 shows on at a time during primetime hours. My wife and kids seem to even find nights where all 4 tuners are going.

    Goodbye DISH.....Hello DirecTV.....

    My D* install went great today. Two HR24's and MRV setup. The installer went above and beyond doing the install during a really hard cold rain. The installer did not want to use the old wiring so I helped him run new RG6. Two runs to the main HR24 and one to the second. The old was kinked in...

    swiching to direct next week

    Saturday install for me as well. Thanks for the information about E* wanting the LNB back. I will have to ask the installer to grab the old dish off the roof if he does not re-use the current location.

    How can I get a HR24 Receiver?

    I hate having to pay $200 just for the privilege of leasing the dvr.

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    The whole Robin hood act wore off a long time ago. Whats the big deal with Fox wanting a 50% increase when Dish increased our rates twice in the last year and for some (including myself), equipment fees went up over 300%. As much as I love Dish, the channel pulling needs to stop. Give us what...

    I grabbed it from Usenet about 2.5 hours ago.

    ESPN News HD/Disney HD/ABC family coming back?

    The Dish Network Forum really needs a sub-forum for Lawsuits and Channel disputes. It is hard to keep track of them all.

    DISH Network Software Release Notes 9/30/10

    I was just hoping they would brick them all and give us 622's as replacements.:rolleyes:

    Lots of Database errors

    What kind of RAID card? Some allow you to check the predictive failure and SMART variables of the drives. I have some nice Nagios plugins to throw warnings when drives believe they are going to fail. When they start failing or completely fail it throws a critical.

    Sirius channels

    Anyone else having terrible audio on the Sirius channels? I rebooted both the 622 and 612 and it is still cutting in and out. Specifically Octane 20 (6020) but some other random Sirius channels that I checked were doing the same. Ack, Murphy's law. No drop outs since I clicked submit.

    Can I get the Locals of CHICAGO while in MINNEAPOLIS?

    I miss the days when you could call up and "move". Now you need to have a friend or relative in the area and send them a slingbox to get the full games in HD. I was a Sunday Ticket sub for about 7 years until it got too expensive. Nowadays I will go sit at a local Steeler bar or catch what I can...

    PC Mag Reviews 922 - Gives it Editor's Choice Award

    Good review. They should mention that the 922 is a lease and the price you are paying is the upfront lease cost where as the Tivo price is a purchase. Obviously the 922 is better but so many people think they own the device if they have to pay $$$ for it.

    Anyone watching the World's Cup in 3d

    I think we would have ESPN 3D and ESPNU HD if Dish was not suing ESPN right now. I did check it out today and it was ok. ABC/ESPN are not the ones filming so I guess the camera placement is not ideal for 3D. Some shots were impressive while others were no different than SD/HD.
