921 and Tivo have competition from Comcast

[BCH]

Very interesting article. After the 921 debacle I wonder if Echostar has the technical ability to compete.

Sad thing is I remember the chatter on the boards about how cool this would be for Dishnetwork. I'm pretty sure E* made and investement into this company when it was just Moxi.

Dish missed the boat on that one. If cable ever mainstreams this little number than expect even more defections. If Dish doesn't get it's head out of it's ass I predict one day that we will be reading about dish churn like we do the Big C -band dish service today.

I've seen it in person, and it kicks ass.

Ironically, Echostar was an early investor in Moxi, maybe even still so. But, the main investor in Digeo, which purchased Moxi, is Paul Allen.
