DISH’S BLACK FRIDAY DEALS INCLUDE A FREE HOPPERGO POCKET DVR FOR NEW SIGN-UPS

[bluegras]

Even as Dish is making life easier for cord cutters with its Sling TV streaming service, the company is still doing everything it can to attract users to its satellite TV service. With Black Friday sales beginning to ramp up, the company is offering a new deal that could make the decision to sign up for its satellite service a whole lot easier: a free HopperGo pocket DVR.

Released near the beginning of the year, the HopperGo isn’t a DVR itself, but it does let you watch your DVR recordings anytime, anywhere. The device plugs into a standard Dish DVR like the Hopper 2 or Hopper 3 via USB. Once connected, it downloads your recordings and allows you to carry up to 100 hours of content with you.

How about all existing Dish Customers can have a 100% free upgrade of their choice...

Just like the failed "pocket dish" that Dish tried to release several years ago.

Got so many returns on that we stopped selling them.

Wow, I didn't realize they were so unreliable. My Archos 404 has been golden. Of course I quit using it years ago...

No issues. People just realized that they where way under valued for the price they paid once they got them.

 

[TheKrell]

Yeah, the whole Archos line is rather pricey. I bought mine refurbished, and the cost was much more reasonable.

 

[Claude Greiner]

That was the issue. People would get them and realized it took forever to download it the pocket Dish and the whole mobile tv thing didn't catch on yet.

It sucked for us so bad I stopped selling them as I got tired of dealing with customers over the restocking fee
