    New DishHD $29.99 HD Only Package Details

    I'm a huge Dave Ramsey fan, so Fox Business is very important to me. I'm going to gamble on the Fox Business being added in HD at some point. I think It's going to happen when the new birds go up because it's easily compressible, and when they have the bandwidth they will go nuts proclaiming...

    New DishHD $29.99 HD Only Package Details

    My guess, it's contractual.. or possibly strategic.. This is very much a toe in the water move, If it's a hit, and thousands upon thousands are screaming that they just want this and RSN's that gives Dish the ability to do one of those "you asked for it, you got it" lines at team summit which...

    Live Dish Retailer Chat Recap - August 16, 2006

    I'll be a customer again when I can get HD prepaid I can afford Dish, and I have great credit.. but I don't like long term commitments as to me they are like debt. I'll be 1st in line if I can get an MP4 Rx w/ Dish 1000 and an HD prepaid package.

    New XM Channels on DirecTv.

    I've written asking for Music Lab to be returned to us. it was the only good mobile source of Progressive rock, even though it was only 1/3rd prog. You can't use your Sky Fi 2 to rewind on Fine Tuning, and Deep Tracks doesn't play the new prog acts.. so to make a long story short, the two...

    942 opportunity

    The extent of the 942 opportunity is a very rare occurence for Dish and should be maximized. Competitive Analysis: Currently DirecTV has a quality HD-DVR solution which is marginalized by the fact that they are changing the core technology ie, HD-TIVO is a product for today, not tomorrow...

    Dish Earnings Conference Call and reported HD Plans...

    Dish has had Class Action suites before and as long as Charlie the 'work hard play hard risk taker' is in charge we'll have to deal with serious attitude and piss poor customer service. Dish internally and externally is suffering from an age old problem.. too much growth. Look at Ebay...

    Best Charlie Chat EVER

    I not 100% sure that it is lack of knowledge. Charlie is at the point where he's focusing on public persona so he may give misleading statements on purpose to further that image. But He's also always been a money guy more than a tech guy so it may be the case that he truly doesn't know...

    942 Mia

    Per Scott's reporting from CEDIA: It seems that Dish has made a tactical error in it's resource allocation. (a major problem through out the organization). The 942 is a huge product that could potentially eliminate 4 receivers.. the 811, 921, 522, & 322. That may be stretching things a bit...

    Greetings from CEDIA!

    Thank you for the 942 update. I'm not surprised but at the same time I question the priority mix on Dish's part. I'll point my discussion points in another more appropriate forum.

    Question for someone with deep technical knoledge

    I've been thinking lately about the Cable card concept forwarded by the Cable Industry. It seems to me that if dish/direct can build a satellite tuner that interacts with the TV in the cable card format, then they would be able to virtually eliminate the cost of the STB's and truly be on par...

    Greetings from CEDIA!

    Did dish have it's 942 on display? To me that's the next exciting application currently in development. Well at least until someone announces a cablecard HD Tivo with a Blue Ray burner built in. :)

    New Sirius Lineup July 7th, 2004!

    Still no progressive Rock.. But if Area 63 has bands like ozric tentacles, then I'll be slightly more satiated.

    Request: Rename 921 Forum

    It seems to me with the potential for a 942 product by the end of the year, and even if it's delayed we'll be talking about it by the end of the year that the 921 forum should be renamed to DISH High Def DVR Forum for 921 & 942 discussion. Your thoughts?

    Take this for what its worth...

    Market share. DirecTV and Dish are both very close to 98% of population coverage for locals. Their next major need is to get more customers in existing urban locals markets where their market penetration is less than idea. It's going to be a difficult and expensive period of customer acquisition.

    REVIEW: Dish Network Sirius Receiver (SR200)

    I find that I have a little signal interfearance, but i'm a bit of a audiophile so the sound of the ocasional static drives bothers me. I have tried every frequency allowed by the unit.

    REVIEW: Dish Network Sirius Receiver (SR200)

    Good review. I completely agree with your assessment of the FM tuner being a weak point. For me it was the MAJOR weak point. I can't stand fuzz when i'm getting a digital signal. It would be a good idea if we could find out if Sirius was limited by the FCC as to how much power they could...

    SIRIUS Request Thread

    First off: Congratulations on the new Forum. As a subscriber to both Sirius and XM I'm happy to report that i'm enjoying the benefits of Satellite Radio every day, no matter which car we are in. I figure every service provider discussion board has a thread where people posts service...

    Letter from Charlie Ergen

    With all due respect, you are waaaaay off base. Government, especally one as big as ours is a bureaucracy. The main goal of all bureaucracy is it's own survival and growth. What charlie was doing was definately not in the spirit of the origional agreement, but at the same time it was...

    So what do you think of Sirius?

    One area that Sirius & Dish could colaborate on would be a 5.1 channel music stream. Sorround sound is taking way to long to become a standard for reasons that are too numerous to mention here. I think a sorround sound demo channel streamed to receivers that are already set to output sorround...

    DISH Network Adds TNT to its High-Definition Package; Programming to Include NBA, Mov

    it's a nice idea, but Charlie & Co. can only fleece the vendors to pay for everything aproximately once a year.

    Will there be someone who is posing news and announcements from Team Summit?

    So what do you think of Sirius?

    Sadly still no progressive rock channel that highlights bands like YES, King Crimson, Genesis(early), Spocks Beard, Transatlantic, Dream Theater, Echolyn, etc..
