It will be at least a year before I can get U-verse (maybe) so I am looking into Homezone.

On AT&T's website it says the Homezone is still only available to NEW ATT/Dish customers. I also see no mention of HD capabilities, either.....

I think DishONLINE might be Dish's version of AT&T's Homezone.

Yeah, if you have a 622 I'd just wait to see how DishONLINE pans out.

Well, then correct your post - not "HD box", but "SD box".

Is it possible to get over-the-air local HD channels with Homezone?

No. The current Homezone box (1022SD) does not have OTA capabilities.

Current Homezone is SD only. The service is a neat concept, but I ended up canceling tonight. My biggest complaint was with the functionality of the DVR and Guide - it was really poor. You could sort the 'my recordings' list, you couldn't record anything that you couldn't select in the guide, no search options in the guide other than a blanket search that hit both title and description.

I'm going to try the 622. I know it currently lacks the connectivity features of the Homezone, but at least it's HD and the DVR functionality seems more robust.
