    vip 622 HDMI troubles?

    Had my 622 for about a year now. I remember hearing some horror stories regarding HDMI not working properly, or working for only a short time then going "out". Is this still a problem for others? Reason I ask is because mine went out the other day. *E sent a rep that replaced the 622, but...

    Murdoch: Gov't Would Approve DirecTV/Echostar

    So, you got your opinion "HD is a Gimmick, and nobody cares about it". Hey, no offense, keep your VHS, and your SD tv.........but HD is here, and it matters to lots of people (just not you). Hey, some people still have their 8-track player in their car because they think this cassette & CD...

    Murdoch: Gov't Would Approve DirecTV/Echostar

    The part that insinuates HD is not important to consumers. HD material is important to the thousans of people a day that are buying new HD ready sets, and wanting to have HD. The Satelite/Cable company that doesn't think that, is the company soon to be out of business. Of course they DO KNOW...

    I have 2-622's. Both work fine. NO problems what-so-ever. ONE is connected HDMI, the other component. I would recommend it without question. Robert

    Dish fixed STARZ HD

    I guess I don't understand Walt's problem with *E saying they are the "HD Leader". Who else has 29+ HD channels at the resolution we are getting from *E? I know *E is not perfect, and their Mpeg 4 leaves room for improvement. BUT, I for one am "digging-it"! And it's nice to know that it...

    HD OTA vs. DISH HD Locals

    Upgraded today from 942 to 622. On my 133" screen, the difference between OTA & Dish HD locals is HUGE. Can't believe just how crappy the Dish HD Locals look..........I'm amazed at the difference. Sad.......... Robert

    Should Dish follow DirecTV's Titanium plan?

    How much you wanna bet they sell quite a few of these? I have a buddy that pays 10k yr for 2-season tickets to the Dallas Mavericks. You add parking ($30 per game), 1-beer, and a box of Craker Jacks ($10), then the playoffs (season tickets DON'T include Playoff tickets), and he is paying...

    Free Upgrade to a 622?

    Negatory. I had only been on my 18mt committment for about 5 mts when I got (and took!) the offer to swap out both my 942's for 622's FREE! I think one of the previous posters may be onto something though with finding a correlation between 100% on-time payments and previous history & getting...

    The number that make me that offer is 866-668-8047. I took it! Free swap, free install, free dish upgrade. Not only do I get about 3 more HD channels now, but all future HD channels. No-Brainer decision to take the deal. Robert

    Free Upgrade to a 622?

    I didn't get that specific, and it really doesn't matter to me....."six-of-one-half-dozen-of-the-other". Either way, I'm getting the swap for free:clap Robert

    Free Upgrade to a 622?

    As ususal it depends on who you talk to. Here's the deal I FINALLY got (keep in mind this took 3 1/2 hrs on the phone, talking to people that I HAVE TO explain to them what their promotion is). Currently I have 2-942's. One leased, and one owned. AEP, VOOM, HD Package....full tilt...
