I'm sorry if this has been covered previously...but...what are the differences between the 622 and the 722? Is it really worth the upgrade? I've only had my 622 for 6 months or so...any suggestions/ideas/comparisons? Thanks!
 
Larger hard drive is main difference. You would not be able to upgrade if it has only been six months since you upgraded to the 622. Once you use Dish n it up, you cannot use it again for 12 months (counts if you were new customer as well). You may be able to if you purchased the 622.

I have both units and can't see a lot of difference except those mentioned.
I would probably spend my money with the external hard drive upgrade.
 
I find the 722 Closed Captions to work better.
(1) I can use the small size and not get mising portions of the characters.
(2) When scrolling the 622 I would sometimes lose portions of the text display.
(3) The 622 would sometimes repeat phrases and drop letter(s) off the end.

To me the display is crisper, a better resolution. Its hard to be quantitative because my Samsung HL-S5687 DLP does not let me turn off overscan and keep it off and the 622 is now on a CRT projector and I cannot make copies of the HDnet test pattern 12 minutes.

I'm not sure which is faster for some guides and menus--the 722 should be.
