What do recent subs need to do to make sure they are hooked up for 61.5? i.e. those with pending installs...

Ok, I'm waiting to find out what I need to do to make sure my May 5 install includes the VOOM channels. I imagine they need to let the installers know. Lets get some more info on this.

I can't imagine them giving the 942 for free. I would be pissed, I paid $250 for it earlier this week when I signed up for Dish. Plus all of the existing customers that are dying to be able to lease one for $250 anyway. Good news though, I knew I picked E* for a good reason. Now I wonder, am...

My question is : I don't need a place to hang out, but if gaining access to "the pub" will I get clued in a little more on whats going on?

So is the best way to get a good deal with E* is to call them directly? For two TV's, whats the best deal to go after?

So what if you have HDTV monitors with no built-in local HD tuner? Are there any options like the Voom box from anyone?

All I can hope for is that Chuck tries again, on his terms. Maybe we'll have something else to look forward to in 12-18 months...unless he used AMC6 to start.

Ugh. This sucks.

I sincerely hope Charles succeeds, to throw that kind of money into something deserves a positive return. Go Chuck!

I'm sure the agreement (thats all it was) has a way out. If Charles wants to pay the termination fee, whats stopping him from doing so?

Note it says to fund anything above what it would have cost to shut it down. Didn't we establish that was a pretty good sum of money? (~300mil) So its not like hes going to be out a bunch of money this month. Sounds like good news to me?

I do think that if they are already wanting to give up after 16 months (when no one could have possibly expected to be breaking even already), they shouldn't have voted to do it in the first place. Maybe Chuck would have gotten the company off on the right foot with someone other than CVC. Of...

Everyone loves those Samsung DLPs don't they? :) Both of mine are component out to 1080i native, but I haven't had a chance to look at PQ...

Wow this just keeps getting better.

Stop mentioning the voomllc.com or newvoom.com and see if you can get the CSR to mention it on their own. Then we can really see how much THEY know about whats going on. Might get a new tidbit of info, and around here, tidbits get sticky'd!

Well there is good news, at least it really does seem like someone is fighting for this on the inside. This will make a great chapter in Chuck's autobiography.

My head hurts. I might just leave this site alone and come back in a couple days! Back and forth, back and forth. Amazing.

It is just a subdomain on a domain owned by RightNow. Voom uses their services for Customer Service apparently.

Interesting...

I'm sorry I have to post again, but this nonsense is driving me up the wall. Come over and put a bullet in my brain if I'm wrong. Rainbow 1, was launched July 17, 2003 on the third launch of the Atlas V. -------------------------------------------- Rainbow 1, a high power Ku-band...

Wow, so does VOOM get sucked up into Echostar and everything good from VOOM goes away? Does anyone see this as "good news"? I enjoy all my HD and the good SD PQ, don't wanna go back...

All OTA channels, 3-WTKR,10-WAVY,13-WVEC,15-WHRO,27-WGNT,33-WTVZ, 43-WVBT, etc. Virginia Beach/Tidewater, Virginia area. What is strange is that both boxes in my house have 7.33, but one is working just fine. The other one in my living room is the one with no locals... As usual VOOM CS is...

Well, you know since Voom only has about 12 subscribers left, Showtime said they didn't mind ;) I still say its a birthday present for me! (Or maybe Arnold Schwarzenegger)

H.264, your hi-def dvd player is going to be using it... Delivers a hi-def image at the same bitrate as a standard def DVD (6mBit)... Non-proprietary codec, open to everyone... Makes plenty of sense to expect this as the codec upgrade we will see in the future... Part of MPEG-4...
