    921 Q/A Hold Thread

    Yep-- people bash E* when they release a buggy product, and they bash E* again if they DONT release a buggy product. Give em time guys, let them get it done right, and it will (hopefully!) be worth the wait. Im dying for one as well.

    Voomer thinking of Dish Networking

    Nope. My HD looks FANTASTIC with the 811. No compression artifacts. There have been two software updates in the last 30 days... in my opinion, there are a few kinks left, but overall its very usable. The problems left are (for most people) tiny nuisances, but not major bugs. If you are...

    My Panasonic 50LC13 looks fantastic (with versions 263/4/5) using DVI. No darkness issue at all.

    The new 811 software ver 265 is here!

    DLP, LCD, LCD projection--- its fine to "overdrive your screen". No danger or longevity issues result from screen settings.

    811 waiting list

    I mailed ceo in early feb, a few weeks after getting put on the list. About 3 weeks ago, I got a call saying "you were on the list, and we have them now!". But, had already grabbed one from the ceo email i sent. So, in short it looks like people are finally getting called who are on the...

    Any news on new Dish HD channels?

    No, no problem at all. My opinion is that is extra effort and possibly cost. What if one month after switching to D*, E* adds a channel or two. Then you switch back. Then four months later D* adds a few. You switch again. etc etc. Seems silly to me, but some folks might find this hassle...

    Any news on new Dish HD channels?

    so i take it by that response that once you are with D*, and E* starts offering more, you switch back? Sounds from your post that whoever has more HD will make you switch immediately

    Vicaom Head Discusses Buying Echostar

    \ Dish stock *could* be going up because they announce earnings tommarow. Not a real strange occurance.

    No Viacom-- Now what?

    He said himself last night that when E* started out, they paid a higher fee for Viacom/CBS due to the fact that they had a smaller subscriber base as a startup company. He said that they have not only kept E* at the higher rates, but is now demanding an increase over that already high rate...

    Well, the drama is over

    Ya poor guy! I cant say I've heard of anyone else that has an 811 that wont output HD. You must have had some setup problem or just a bad unit. Enjoy D*. I heard that D* equipment will wipe your a$$ too, is that right?

    Dish should make the Viacom stations

    Since part of what charlie's standing up against is the Viacom demand that certain channels be in the AT60, I dont think this idea will ever come to pass AcuraCL. Would be a GREAT option, I'd dump Via-crap in a heartbeat.

    811 Latest Fixes?

    One thing Ive been noticing is bad guide data. If you hold down the ">" and zoooom forward in the guide, things get messed up. You'll either see the wrong show in the wrong time, or pressing "info" gives info on a different program.

    who would be willing to pay more money to keep viacom?

    Looks like you will be SOL with that take on it. Remember, its viacom that wants more money, not "Charlie", ECHOSTAR rather... sigh... another "Charlie" reference by Wlong- wonder if he knows there are 14,999 other employees there that get paychecks? Anyways, asking Charlie/Echostar to...

    Would you leave Dish if they stop carrying CBS?

    Well dish isnt allowed to offer channels ala carte. Some stations require that if you get one channel, you get a bundle. Dish HAS to offer packages. Just like every single other content provider. The difference is that DISH is allowing you to choose your own programming. Viacom wants to...

    stop complaining, it will not get us anywhere

    OK, fair enough mistake. If you dont expect then to direct company decisions with the data here, then you expect them to look at opinions here, listen, and do nothing else. You are splitting hairs here because you have no response, and thought you were oh-so witty with your response. Ok so...
