I think you're right, Dick. Ron has been stringing us along for months now about a new general release of 811 firmware. It used to be that he would post release notes for the firmware before it hit the street, but now he doesn't. Maybe it's because the next release is just vaporware.Dick Sommers said:It looks like E* has given up on the 811....

Why not? It's been hanging out there for weeks now. Or maybe E* will send a P2.84 box to those with P2.87 and the BSOD problem, and have them return their 811s. Problem solved. That might be easier on E* and the users, than continuing to churn problematic releases for the 811, with it's limited lifespan.WeeJavaDude said:Mikey,
Jason posts the release notes not me and as to the stringing you along, and it is my understanding that Jason has been asked not give out upcoming release information because it causes a lot of pain when a release is pulled back. Definitely a two edge sword.
So you can believe what you want and choose to believe Dick. I personally feel that there will be other firmware releases of the 811. You think Dish is going to let the 811 with the it's current increase in BSOD sit hanging out there until the 411. Think about it.
All true, except that the technology that the Dishplayer was based on, wasn't going away.Tom Bombadil said:...I believe Dish will be more committed to fixing the 811 than they were for the Dishplayer, which wasn't even based on their software.
WeeJavaDude said:Well then the same could easily be said about the 921 and the 942. Anyway.. Like I said I am willing to take any wagers. Or just an addition to signatures claiming who is right. I we can make the deadline the end of Sept. even.
What do you say Mike and Dick?
Make the deadline the end of June, and you're on!WeeJavaDude said:Well then the same could easily be said about the 921 and the 942. Anyway.. Like I said I am willing to take any wagers. Or just an addition to signatures claiming who is right. I we can make the deadline the end of Sept. even.
