    DISH NETWORK® INTRODUCES TETRIS® TV

    $2.99/month?!!?!? Come on!!! If they're going to let crap like this exist then it should at least be free.

    WOW! Just noticed the new DISH Remote Access Feature

    I'm bundled and there's good news. You can go direct to DISH Remote Access Login and create a sling.com account and still access this feature. I've been using it for months through the beta program and it's very nice. There are a few things they can stand to improve, but it's a great start.

    Scott's Twitter Thread Including Team Summit Updates

    Just as expected. $700 is a lot up front, but really, if it ends up being able to do everything they say it will, $200 for a lease isn't a bad deal.

    SlingGuide - Problems

    I'm not having any problems today on XP using Chrome. I am still waiting for my HD locals to show up in the grid after they were turned on yesterday though. EDIT: No problems with Firefox or IE7 on the same machine either.

    SlingGuide - Problems

    Well, I'm not sure when they showed up, but they're there now, including FBN-HD. The last time I checked was around 2 or 3 yesterday afternoon. Only thing that stands out is that the FBN channels don't have a logo yet. I'm guessing the speed may vary, but channels can be expected to show...

    SlingGuide - Problems

    Anybody had Fox News HD or Fox Business SD show up in the grid for them yet? I'm not seeing them on mine. There's nothing on these channels that I'm really interested in recording, but I figured it'd be a nice test to see how quickly new channels get added to the sling.com interface.

    Dish Network Press Conference - Live Coverage

    Would be cool even though I've already got it on the xbox. It's been mentioned in a few other threads, but Hulu support would really be awesome.

    Ciel 2 - ILS Site Active

    The ILS blog just posted confirming the end of the 1st Breeze burn. If I remember correctly, it was the second burn that failed with AMC14 right?

    Dish Showing No Favoritism in Politics

    You gotta give McCain props. Between his wife and his VP, if he wins, the White House will be full of nice looking ladies.

    Dish Showing No Favoritism in Politics

    Palin is a known contributor to the spread of global warming. She's smoking.

    622 / 722 Software Release Notes

    You beat me to it. They're going to have something on DishOnline that's free? It'll probably be old Golden Girls episodes or something.

    Annual CineMax For $0.01/Yr Revisited

    Really? I'll have to call CenturyTel and see what happens. I've tried once or twice in the past with no luck.

    Space Systems/Loral Delivers EchoStar XI Satellite to Launch Base

    The Ciel bird (I forget the number) that's going to 129 is scheduled to launch from the same place and on the same rocket as AMC-14. It was supposed to go up around November or December, but someone here said recently that it had been pushed back to February I believe.

    I wrote to HDNet...

    I don't think it'd be hard for them to get this off the ground. HDNet already runs several repeating hours of concerts on Sunday afternoons/nights. They've had some good shows in the past. I usually try and look ahead in the guide to see if there's anything worth recording.

    Team Summit Photos

    If you're talking HD output from the tv2 home distribution, I'd think that'd be a pretty big deal.

    Programming Question(s)

    I didn't argue the $5. I should have, but I wasn't really concerned about it since it was just one-time thing. I did ask if I could get 3 months of Cinemax free since I couldn't get the $.01 deal but she said she couldn't and I didn't press the issue. I was just happy that it was as painless...

    Programming Question(s)

    Alright guys, here's the breakdown. I HAD DVR Advantage w/200 channels and HD Ultimate I DROPPED from HD Ultimate to HD Essentials. This brought my bill down $10/month (-$10) I MOVED UP from 200 channels to 250 channels. This cost me $10 more/month (+$10) My bill is the same as it was. There...

    Drop HD Ultimate and get a Premium channel pack?

    I did this yesterday. My bill will stay the same and now I have the Encore channels that come in the 250 pack. Also, if you're not bundled through your phone company you can get the Cinemax package for $.01/year if you do auto-pay and paperless billing.

    Programming Question(s)

    I just spoke with a very nice, American young lady named Amber. She was able to confirm that outside of the $5 fee for downgrading to HD Essential, my bill would be the same. I had her go ahead and take care of the changes and I'm now on DVR Advantage with AT250 and HD Essential. I was...

    Programming Question(s)

    I would love to get Cinemax for $.01, esp. with the HD adds yesterday, but I'm bundled with my phone company and can't get it.

    Programming Question(s)

    I'm currently on DVR Advantage with AT200 and HD Ultimate. My first question(s): Is it possible to move from DVR Advantage/200 to DVR Advantage with the AT250? If so, does anyone know what the price difference is? I'm thinking about dropping to HD Essential and moving up to the 250 if it's...
