    New DirecTV Fall Promotions

    Would they be likely to do anything for me when my 2 yr commitment is up in august? I have had directv since 2000 but now there are some other options, like uverse that will give me a great deal to switch to them, I know that would mean no sunday ticket but it was likely to get dropped this...

    what to do with an unused receiver

    let me make sure i understand correctly, if I deactivate the sd dvr and return it to Directv, if they ask for it, and keep my hd dvr active i will not have to pay any fees or penalties for not completing my 2 yr commitment.

    pc tuner cards

    It may just be wishful thinking on my part but is a tuner card for your PC an option any time soon. D* could sell the card and necessary software and you could then build your own dvr or multi-room video pc. It would likely be a niche market for tech geeks but it would seem like it would be a...

    samsung led dlp tv

    How long have you had that tv? The only other real question i had about it was the viewing angle, the tv would be going in my living room so it is important to be able to see the tv from the front and sides.

    samsung led dlp tv

    I have been looking at buying a samsung led dlp tv HL67A750 and was wondering if anyone has any opinions on them. It is the new version without a lamp or color wheel. I know that you can not mount dlp tv's on a wall but the price of the 67" tv was less than $2000, which is less than half the...

    deleting showcase programs

    On an HR20-700 that is running the national release software is there any way to delete the programs that are in the showcase folder? Most of it is Sunday ticket junk and some of it even says it is expired. There is no delete option and the red button on the remote does not do anything either.

    It costs more than you want to pay so you are going to steal it. Thanks for driving up prices for the rest of us. Next time try Ethics 101.

    HD DVD Will win and this is why:

    Let me start this by saying I don't care which format ends up "winning." I just want 1 player that plays ALL DVD's. I would have bought a Toshiba today, but all the Wal-Mart’s in my area were sold out before 10 am. Do you really think that this is anything but the first shot in the...

    Worst...NFL SUNDAY...Ever (this season)?

    They do it that way so both networks get a chance to show all teams no matter what conference. Fox gets to show some AFC games and CBS gets some NFC games. I guess it makes for more even distribution of teams that draw the best non-local ratings.

    2 HD DVRs exchanging content

    Just curious but why would it require additional or a new box as the hr20 can already be networked with a pc, however limited it currently is. Maybe I am a little slow to understand but it doesn't seem like it would take much to be able to network the boxes themselves to watch content on...
