DISH 2016 CES Press Event

[Scott Greczkowski]

Welcome to SatelliteGuys Coverage of the 2016 DISH CES Press Event!

The event starts at 6PM ET / 3PM PT.

I am kind of short handed this year, Dfergie couldn't make it because of his house fire and WallyHTS was supposed to be here but his flight to Vegas was canceled due to dense fog cover here in Las Vegas. So its just ME covering the event. WallyHTS will get here later tonight and help with videos tomorrow.

So what this means is I want you guys to watch and report whats going on from the CNET VIdeo feed found at http://live.cnet.com/Event/DISH_CES_2016_presss_conference I will be posting when I can thoughts and pictures from the event.

I will close the thread for now, but open it up just before the event starts.

Thanks for being SatelliteGuys, I think many of you will be very excited at what is announced today.

We were just let in, and for the 8th CES in a row I was the first person in line.

Got to talk with both Charlie and Vivek for awhile.

Voice just came over the speaker and said 5 minutes until showtime!

Only 1. You still have 15 tuners left to use.
