    Time for Charlie to resign!!!!!

    Sluggo, I see your point. However, & I can't speak for everyone, but I feel like the reason most are complaining (about whatever regarding E*) has to do with a number of things. And maybe the latest thing or two was just the straw that broke the camels back for some people, such as myself...

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    Earlier today, I thought "figures that today is my last full day with E* before cancelling tomorrow after our new D* install, and this also happens to be the day where we get a few good HD channels I've been waiting a long time for". I take that thought back! It's 40 minutes to midnight, and...

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    Uh, now that you put that image in my head (and its so true), maybe keep vh1 in sd! It will be like virtual std. Herpes so crystal clear you feel like you caught them yourself and may want to rub some purell on your flat screen just to be safe. Seriously though, I say 90% of these girls have...

    In Defense of Dish Network

    Yes, I'm aware I can be "the long post guy". Have been my whole life! I'll take the criticism for the long post, as long as people can take what I dish out when I say people have zero attention spans these days. Seriously. It's like if something isn't written to be read in 2 minutes, it's...

    Johnstown/Altoona HD Locals

    Of course since I'm gonna be leaving E* come april (sick of waiting for local HD from E* one of the reasons), then the above is probably true. It's my luck that as soon as I leave E*, here come the HD locals! But to be honest, I'd be leaving anyhow. However, a post that just says "4/22/09"...

    In Defense of Dish Network

    Before I tell my E* nightmare story, the sad truth is that while people are born to complain, dish has also given people reason to complain, which makes it double bad! Honestly, not any huge differences between E* & D* as far as programming, HD, and PQ (IMO). So, it's possible to be happy with...

    Cancelling E* contract, what do we do with the equipment?

    For a few reasons, we have just had it with E*, can't do it anymore, they screwed with us one too many times. So we just scheduled for D* to come and set us up on apr 2nd. So we are going to wait to cancel E* until we are definitley up and running with D*. When this happens, we are aware that...

    DISH NETWORK® ANNOUNCES EXPANSION OF LOCAL HD MARKETS

    Some complain cuz they don't have all hd locals. Some don't like the fact that they have to get their hd locals OTA. There are always people that have it worse and these people need taken care of. I feel bad for indy people, but you guys live in a condensed area where recieving hd locals...

    1080P Movie Poll

    Just ordered 10,000 BC last night. Only $2.99 (plus $1 charge) and I think it was well worth it, but when they jack the price back up to $7 or more I'll likely pass. However, the movie looked really great, a good choice for 1080p. The best looking movie I ever seen on my HDTV since I still...

    Altoona-Johnstown, Let's Get Our HD Locals Like DTV Users Did (Petition?)

    This is getting very irritating, and I wanna rep my DMA (which is in the top 100, albeit late 90's) because I was told by Dish a few months back that we would at least be on the HD local list, if not have them, by football season. That said, I wouldn't be nearly as irritated had DirectTV not...
