    It's Only TV! (?)

    Now, if and/or when D* is offering more HD content than E* (possibly next fall), will these same arguments be valid? Will everyone be jumping ship to D* because they may (for the time being) have a few extra HD channels than E* (hypothetically speaking).

    Upgrade to HD now or wait questions/OTA ?'s

    1 - New HD DVR is out! I'd get on the list for it, not sure how soon you could get it though, maybe just in CA right now? 2 - maybe, maybe not. No one knows for sure, some have been promised free upgrade, we'll see. I would count on a $99 upgrade fee, myself. 3 - I've read the same, not sure...

    How late will installer work?

    When I switched to D* a couple years back, the installer was scheduled to arrive between 1-5. He kept me informed throughout the day, so that part was good, but he didn't show up until 8 or so. Left about midnight. That was fine with me, I had already disconnected E*, and wanted tv that night!

    Search Error

    This may be related, but I get the following error whenever I click on any of the forums...... The only threads I can see are the most recent in each forum, or the last 10 posted on the main page. There seems to have been a slight problem with the SatelliteGuys.US database. Please try again...

    Lot's of new features!

    May have something figured out Scott. :) I'm embarrassed to admit, but I had most of the forums hidden when I received the error. I really only care about the D* and E* forums, and of couse the Pub area! :D After going back and unhiding a few, it looks like 27 is the most forums you can...

    When did they start charging a shipping fee?

    I got out of the shipping fee for the third time just this past weekend. I told them I was thinking about switching to D*(no lie), and this 14.95 shipping may just be the last straw. I usually throw in something why am I being asked to pay for the fact that E* can't make more reliable...

    Amazing Race is better than Survivor

    I'm ready for her to be gone now myself. I don't mind when the participants hassle each other (although the Brother's bi-atch comment was over the top, IMO), I don't like it when they outright lie. Mirna, Smirna, whatever saying she needed to go to the top of the flight's waiting list for...

    Amazing Race is better than Survivor

    Geez, can Holly in BB5 actually be that stupid? I hope she is playing the dumb blonde card. I really enjoyed TAR last night. The little person cousin seems capable of running the race, but her cousin is going to bring her down. The little one wanted to help carry the slab of meat, but her...

    Let's go CRAZY!

    Neutron and stratguy, If you don't already know, there are emulators available where you can play the older console games right on your pc. I don't think the new systems are available, but I often play MAME for classic arcade games, and there are NES, Super NES, and Atari 2600 emulators...

    Dish is "Oh so sensitive"

    From the article: To me, there is nothing wrong with those statements, as per the lease agreement terms. As I said, the reader provides his own interpretation to Mr. Lumpkin's words. Some would read this as coming across very cold hearted. I don't. We only get to see just a few words directly...
