That's an additional confirmation - production boxes are out there, in shipping, so next week first 'users' eg installers will begin working on them.
Question: how long the training will be ? One week ?
Fooey. Sat guys can do it after 5 minutes of "training" while looking at the diagram on top of the nodes.

Well, you know our hands and feet are positioned the way that they are so that we can't pat ourselves on the back when we do well, nor kick ourselves in the rear end when we screw up!!!
It sure does. It would be a shame if they don't allow self-installs, which I believe will be the case.
I really want to do a self install. The system is EXTREMELY ?simple especially for tech geeks like me.
Agree! I have done all my installs and upgrades throughout the years--even for leased receivers. But then I own my dishes, LNBFs and switches--plus a couple receivers.
The only way you are allowed to do self installs is if you purchase the equipment. I'm guessing the Hopper will sell for $500 to $600.
There are always exceptions to the rule. I have never had a tech to my home and have/had several leased DVRs that I self installed.

That is true. I would think you'd have better luck going through a retailer. We will not allow our customers to do it though. I'm not doing a service call to a customer for $15 when they installed it themselves. I don't feel that dish should either.
