    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.

    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...

    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.

    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..

    The following is the best post i've seen in a while, it outlines almost exactly the outcome of the Disn network corporate culture.

    Tech Chat - What do you want to see?

    Problem is that allowing that feature is more of a marketing decision than a technical decision. If the port is there, it probably works so the techs have done there job. The marketing people will make the decision on features and they don't tell the techs anything. Sometimes i don't think...

    921 Spec Sheet!

    Thanks scott. I've printed it up. It's going to be placed on my wifes dinner plate tonight so she can see it when she sits down to eat. I have to star working very early to get her used to the idea that there is a toy I want. It usually takes me three to four months to get her approval. I...

    Tech Chat - What do you want to see?

    Yes, this is the absolute best thing they can do to help promote the new hdtv products and services. People who don't usually watch the chat will tune in just to see it in HD.

    What does Dish Network's HDTV Future hold?

    Shame the receiver doesn't have a little light that comes on different colors to show specifically what level of signal is being shown. Maybe Red/blue/Green for 480i 4x3/480p 16x9/ 1080i & 720p in 16x9. That way at a glance you see what's coming in. My sony receiver always has a blue...
