For anyone that has received the Joey Bluetooth Adapter is there a part number that you can provide? As mentioned by another poster the CSRs have no idea what it is and therefore cannot find one to sell it to me. I kept getting the same routine: CSR: "the Joey does not support Bluetooth." Me: "that is why I need the adapter, in order that it can support Bluetooth." CSR: ": but the Joey does not support Bluetooth."....................

Any help would be appreciated.

Zach, maybe you can confirm. If it cannot be ordered through the Dish website, it cannot be ordered through an agent(rule of thumb) when it comes to accessories.

100% correct. As far as I know, we do not have these available for purchase at this time. This is why I am curious as to what the CSR ordered.

FWIW, when I ordered mine it took the CSR some time to figure out what I was looking for and when he eventually did, first told me he was shipping them (2 units) out. After another lengthy hold, came back on to inform me a tech visit (no charge) was required. There was no dissuading him on the tech visit so he set it up. Shortly thereafter a local independent calls asking about what I need and although he was aware of the new device had not seen any and obviously, had none in stock. That tech set up another visit thru Dish and still later, the local Satellite Unlimited dealer called. They, in fact, did have them in stock but was totally unaware of them until we spoke. Tech shows up with two of them, hands them to me and watched as I set them up, thanked me & left - a 10 minutes deal. When I got my bill I was charged for 4, I'm guessing because I was scheduled for 2 each from different installers. A call to Support rectified the billing so all is well. I have to say, it would be much simpler if Dish would just offer online same as OTA modules, etc. I expressed this to the tech and while he agreed, he also said that many customers cannot even figure out how to use their remotes saying they have a surprising number of calls from dead batteries.

Not sure how a CSR was able to do that since the product in question is not in our system. Sounds like you got lucky that they had some in stock.

Hey Zach, Any idea why they haven't made them available for us customers that want to buy one?
Or any hint on when they might possibly be available.???

Just saw they were available on the my dish site for 15. I love having BT on the Hopper so I'm excited for it to be available on the Joey too.

Washington Post

SpaceX has held talks with Boost's parent company EchoStar in recent months about launching its own signature wireless service through a deal with the company, according to two people familiar with the negotiations.
Musk, the SpaceX CEO, has discussed the deal personally, meeting with EchoStar chairman Charlie Ergen last month, according to the people. The potential deal may result in SpaceX acquiring Boost Mobile or SpaceX gaining access to its network, which it leases from AT&T and T-Mobile US, the people said.
Access to those lease agreements would be a coup for SpaceX. The back door would allow Musk to make a play for a U.S. wireless market that equity research firm MoffettNathanson estimates is worth $235 billion. But the proposed service may need consent from those carriers for the service to actually launch, the people said.

Can't remember where or who I saw predict this. :D

It wouldn't surprise me to see Elon soon own all of DISH / Echostar in the future.

Again, why would Musk want a TV Service, specially one that is losing over a million subscribers a year.

Phone service…maybe, but not TV.

I know he wants TV. He wants to deliver EVERYTHING to EVERYWHERE.

Again, if so, why would he want Dish/Sling of all the providers?

He could deliver anything without actually owning, for example, watching the Lions game in my Tesla Y on it's screen via the YT app, while on the way to my future in-laws on Sunday.

If Musk really wants to buy Boost, he might get a great price once Dish Wireless is out of Chapter 11.

Boost just lost 182,000 subs in the 3rd quarter-

Is Dish like Iran in one way...they both will totally collapse by end of week :)
Foxbat
Other than the price, my experience with Boost is not that different than what I experienced with my years with Cricket. I will be curious to see what happens if SpaceX takes the reins.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Rodney Dangerfield is great. One of his best one liners - "My wife likes to talk to me during sex, last night she called me from Florida!"

Jackie Gleason is another one of the greats.
