    Blockbuster vs. Netflix

    I'm trying BB free and its great! If they can use Dish to secure streaming contracts it will grow subscribers. They just need to do it fast before to many other players join the $10 a month all you can eat party

    How to go from a dual to a single reciever

    Go under the house and you will see a diplexer(looks like a splitter), switch the in/out and the uhf/vhf cables. Move the box to the other room triplexer and all, now the bedroom will have TV2. If you only have 1 box on your account the monthly price is the same so why get a single box, If you...

    Iphone coming to Sprint.

    In San Antonio I have customers that have left Clear and went to verizon air cards because they were getting spotty service in the last month or so, but it worked great until recently. In Austin my customers still love clear and works great. I think Clear is growing so fast its having pains. I...

    Iphone coming to Sprint.

    4G worked good on my EVO at CES a few times it shut off and went back to 3g, but I was using Qik and letting my son watch me walk from booth to booth on 4G. I 'm sure you used it 1000 times more than me being a reporter and all.

    VIP 922 DLNA video streaming -partialy working

    The trial is free to try and test. I would do the $40 for 1 year since I like to always have the new stuff and doubt I'll be using it for 3 years.

    722K question

    Yes, you need the OTA module installed in the 722k, about $30-40. You also need to be a dishnetwork customer with that box active on your account. The locals will show up in the guide after a off air scan is performed. The 622 has the OTA built in.

    Update on 922

    On the VIP dvr's you can enable TV 1 through the coax and just buy same extra remotes and set them to TV1 IR/UHF to change channels on TV 1 from another room. This is under modulator setup from the setup/installation menu. We have to wait to see if this feature will make it into the 922. If...

    In most cases the installer losses his pay and materials if you cancel. If the installer does a good job and takes the time to make sure you know how to use it before he leaves, please think hard about canceling just because you mad at Dish or Direct or the boxes in your house (at least for the...

    Sorry DHPP in now named "Service Plan" and that is what it is an in-home service plan with service calls for $15 among other perks. I meant that for zinc's question, you (merk) should have it free for 6 months. Also I've never heard of 14 days to cancel and the poor guy that installed it...

    availability

    You qualify for an upgrade every 12 months but, sometimes you can get it sooner. The longer you've been a customer the better, DHPP better still, higher monthly bill better, especially if someone is looking at your account to make that decision. My Sprint cell service works in a similar fashion...

    Do not cancel DHPP until after your upgrade it makes a difference.

    Dish America Welcome Pack is classified information

    This is a time based recording DVR, not a name based recording like the dish dvr. Just means its a little limited, you still record from the guide. That could have changed since I last spoke to one of the engineers that made it a year ago.

    Sirius raising prices!

    Beware if you are on annual and cancel, they charge a $75.00 fee to break the contract even if you have only 1-2 months left. It happened to me last July When one of my portables broke and I wanted to cancel it until I got a new one.

    Sirius raising prices!

    I canceled yesterday. Feb 2nd is my last day. They should do 2 or 3 radios for $15 in the same house hold. 1 for the house 2 for the cars. People would keep it and feel they are getting a good value. I just got Rhapsody on my Control4 Home Automation system. I get 3 streams at once and...
