    Just ordered Direct instead of Dish

    Tell me how you like it if they ever get it hooked up.

    Directv issues?

    Thanks for the info, Neutron. Final straw. E* stays. D* equipment goes back to Best Buy. I'm just glad I didn't close the gate before I found out that the grass was actually greener in my yard. :)

    Directv issues?

    OK, your helpful answers are causing me to be more of a pest. :o The skip forward button to which you refer, is it the normal Fast Forward button? If so, I'm assuming that enabling the 30 second jump takes fast forward away?

    Directv issues?

    Wow!! I just got back from Best Buy with my three DirecTV DVRs and a dish. After reading posts over the last couple of weeks, and researching functionality of the D* DVR vs my 721s, I decided to jump ship from DISH. What have I gotten myself into? In over 5 years with DISH I've never...
