I agree. As long as the functionality isn't affected, I don't see why the GUI couldn't be upgraded. The 922 looks very nice, and the 722k seems sharper than the vanilla 722. Of course, Dish will probably tell us that if we want the 922 GUI, we should upgrade to the 922 (for $200!)
I love eye candy. The Dish guide is looking just a bit dated, in my opinion.
I'm almost positive my DirecTV box from 10 years ago had channel logos (as an option) in the program guide. I don't want this so much for the look but instead because I don't know what some of the channels are (ones we don't watch, obviously) with their cryptic abbreviations.I love the guide on the 922 versus the layout on the 722/k.

Only if it doesn't slow the guide or other functions down.
Amen to that! If the guide on my 722k slows down any more, I am going to need it to go further than 9 days out because that's about how long it takes to come up!
OK this doesn't sound right my 722k guide runs like a scared rabbit.What software are you running?.Do you turn it off at night?. You may need to contact Dish Network Tech Support for a replacement.
thats cus they had a bunch of different box manufacturers (ie sony,rca) competeing for business..now its one box take it or leave itI'm almost positive my DirecTV box from 10 years ago had channel logos (as an option) in the program guide.

It's been an ongoing issue with many 722k owners for months. Here's a thread on it: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-technical-discussions/221794-slow-guide-722k.html
Thanks for your concern!
Just trying to help?.
My sister-in-law and myself got brand new 722ks/wMT2 last month and both run fast.
Good Luck! with your problem.

What is wMT2??
When one of the resident Dish TSRs postsIs this even a possibility on the 722k? could the 722k handle it?.Only our resident Pros know for sure.
So resident Pros is this even a possibility?.
I'll go out on a limb and say that maybe he's seen it on a 722k with test software....so I wouldn't be surprised if in the future the look gets changed with the functionality. Stranger things have happened.
