New to forums, wanted to say they are great.
i live in the ny/cy region and had cablevision for the longest time. as you can expect i was paying an outrageous amt. each month.did have the hddvr so heres a little feedback. it basically worked ok, only 20hrs harddrive space but had locals and regional sports networks. analog channels looked like crap on 42' plasma. i basically changed because of monthly cost.(io-$55 + 10box rental as none are free + $10 dvr fee + $ 45 internet= $120with taxes and fees.switch to SBC/Dish top 120 $42 + $ 5 dvr fee + $ 20 DSL along with phone all for $100. it took some time to get used to the remote and delay when changing channels but picture quality is great. i love the 522 dvr and have not had any problems as of yet. did not get the 811HD because i did not think it was worth it for the 6 channels and my wife wont let me put an antenna anywhere to get locals.
i am disappointed about not getting locals in HD so when is E* getting them?
no yes network(which is now in HD on cable) any new negotiations for this season?
what about next season with the Mets starting there own channel? being in ny/ct region and not being able to get your hometown baseball team would really SUCK.
will hold off till next season to see what happens with yanks,mets,and HD but if it doesnt improve back to cablevision i go.
