150 HD channels

150 channels and 1080p ?? I can handle THAT !! :

 

[LASooner]

is 1080p a software upgrade or a new box?

I wish they'd just add ext drive support for the 211.

'subscription packages' sounds like HBO et all. Add that to whatever locals will be launched and it will probably account for alot of the new channels to bring it up to 150.

The full press release will be posted here shortly. The 1080p will be an upgrade to all MPEG4 HD receivers and HD DVR receivers.

So far 1080p will only be available for "Pay-per-view" type movies.......no channel is broadcasting a 1080p signal for regular programming. 150 HD channels! I'll be anxious to see the list of upcoming channels.
