Don't confuse the One Connect Mini boxes with the One Connect boxes. Would you confuse a Hopper with a Joey?
For the whole post:
. Disney had a big fail with ESPN, and CBS threw around the idea, but never pulled the trigger, back in 2011. Discovery and ESPN are the only two big names that bought in to 3D that I can find. As posted, Disney can afford to mess up every now and again, as long as they can hit a home run next time. Even the fail was good for them, because it kept ESPN fresh. If they do the same with 4K it will be good for them. Business is not about getting it right every time, just maximizing on every time they can get it right.
I was answering the question about my TV. There is a 2015 Black Friday 40" 4k out there for $449 with the mini. The full One Connect model is $599, well worth the extra $150. I bought an sek3500 for my 2014 TV for a great price of $274.
So let me get this straight... I have two hoppers but don't need any other TV's just these two. To get 4K I need to get a 4K joey which I'm sure they will charge me but IMO they need to push out new firmware for the hoppers to provide it too.
I hear ya. Several of us feel the same as you. I hope DISH comes out with a Super 4K Hopper sometime.
Yeah, in Dish terms that means December 31st 2017.
Just like Summer for the 4K Joey and New UI
I hear ya. Glad they took more time to get all the bugs out of it!Yeah, in Dish terms that means December 31st 2017.

Hopper will be in the main room where largest tv is in most cases and where the 4K tv would be so this is where the 4K would be wanted.
Ha Ha Ha, Hey I'm Happy with the UI we have.
But if Dish is going to do the 4K thing ,I'd rather a Hopper do 4K then the Clients, like Joeys, and Directv's C61.
What if you only have 1 room of service and want 4K?
Just came back from my son's house he has Comcast,on his cable box he can choose the normal settings that both Dish& DirecTV boxes have,then he can also select a 1080p30 or 1080p60 resolution also on his cable box,
The 1080p setting on his Sony 4K UHDTV looks nothing less than awesome.Comcast is definitely ahead of both satellite providers when it comes to resolution setting you can choose from,then Comcast's On Demand is a huge selection.
And his internet speed makes my AT&T DSL look like two cans with a string between them.
Don't count either satellite company out just yet. CES is right around the corner. Dish innovates while DTV finds a way to profit off of. I'm still curious as to the next big leap.
Dish knows what the MAJORITY of their customers are best covered with. Customers with a single 4K TV are no doubt very rare. They will not, and should not, build hardware for those fringe groups. This is why (3) tuners in the Hopper is fine - for the majority. This is why 4K hardware isn't in the Hopper. They are using add-on hardware to accommodate those few that need it (4K, added tuners, etc).
i think dish will put out a hopper 4k at CES we wont know anything until then.give it some time you guys i am too wondering if dish will have enough room for more 4k channels someone told me in the directv forum that there is room for 50 UHD channels there are only a handful out there right now there could be alot more coming at CES.
thats true chad who knows some companies might announce there about new 4k channels.
