    Directv Press Conference Recap

    I'm not going to give up hope until the Vista launch on the 29th. This thing is a Vista thing after all. Notice how most all of the Hardware people who are doing Vista stuff are not saying anything....it's only 21 days away.

    Ok this is nuts..... Lets see here....

    New 5lnb are there many customers?

    He's in the Atlanta area so that would be Ka Locals- I'm betting that we are going to find that the rain fade is a result of the installers not having the dish pointed correctly....

    MPEG4 HD DVR and Home Media Center news:

    Only announcement is "this year" I'd look for it Q4 for the holiday selling season along with Vista I should note that I'm guessing that the device will be a USB style rather than a PCI card. The Intel/Directv announcment mentioned laptops and we have seen the Cablecard device and it's USB...

    MPEG4 HD DVR and Home Media Center news:

    All the more reason to go with MCE and the Sat tuner card....if it gets too bad a quick call to the cable co and a USB device and off you go.

    MPEG4 HD DVR and Home Media Center news:

    Here's another take on this: What if Directv can get all of the functionality that they want from the HMC- Network connections, Multi Tuner support, Interactive support, Portable device support,etc. AND they do not have to support it, design it or pay to have it built? How does this pipe...

    DirecTV MPEG4 Rollout to begin

    looking at the pic for the Multiswitch you can see the freqs that they are using...It looks like they will be stepping on OTA and so you'll need to have a separate coax for it.

    A newbie's thoughts on Superfan

    Here's my problem with the ST/SF package. I'm a lifelong Cowboys fan who does not live in Dallas. I have had ST for some time now so my total for the package this year is right at $265.00. As a Cowboys fan, 8 of our 16 games this year are national broadcasts....so for those 8 games that are not...
