    ViP 622 photo

    I couldn't find a photo of the new ViP 622, so I made this [poor] screen capture. Hopefully we will get a better look during/after CES.

    Does 942 require a land line connection?

    cruzmisl: I don't have a 942, I have a 522... but I think they are alike in this respect: The functionality is all there with or without a phone line. Unlike a Stand-alone TiVo, the phone line is not used for guide data. Dish Network uses the phone line to verify that you are WHO and WHERE...

    Will Dish carry the Logo Network?

    Thanks Slammin! You saved many of us from trying to put it into words. Just don't expect some folks to move into the 21st century and accept people who are different than them. Progress takes time, and has always been resisted by those whose comfortable beliefs are challenged. I'm sure the...

    If you had a choice:Satellite or Cable

    If I could choose WHAT cable carried, I would probably go with cable. You don't need anything on your building, you can easily split it to several TVs (analog channels), they will rent you the DVR affordably, and you can get your broadband internet on the same bill. Since I can't choose the...

    PVR 721 very warm!!!

    Greetings, Dish Experts! Has anyone ever noticed if their 721 gets very warm (almost "hot")?? I needed to re-configure a sat cable going into the back, and when I grabbed the box to move it out a bit, the left back quarter is quite warm, top and bottom. It is only about three months old and...

    Rights to National "local" channels

    National Feeds Local affilliates sell advertising, even during network showings. Just as cable, dish, and directv insert their own 'spots' during 'local avails'on USA, NICK, etc., network affiliates get a few shots each hour at running some of their own little money-makers (often seen before...

    Do you normally give a free preview when locals become avail

    I think it would be a good idea for Dish to give a free preview of local channels, but a bad idea to overcompress those local channels. Wouldn't you think that customers would be a bit more upset to have purchased the locals THEN find out how overcompressed they are and maybe cancelling the...

    At $399, Would you buy a Dish DVR 522???

    DirecTivo's are $50 after rebate at Circuit City. $100 is their normal price. For a Two-Tuner DVR, $400 just won't be competitive. Can you give more detail on that rebate (I can't find a current one that includes the model HDVR2 CircuitCity is selling) Thanx in advance!
