Hopper 3 Available Jan. 30th

[Scott Greczkowski]

Does anyone know the reason the 4k Joey is shipping with the 40.0 remote?

Because they have been sitting in warehouses for a few months now, before the other remote was ready.

And yes DIRT will be working tomorrow and sending PM's for upgrades.

I have no idea why. I'll have to ask.

Any benefits to a 4K Joey if you only have one 4K tv?

Thanks for the info Scott. So would we be able to purchase the 52 remote separately? Maybe I will just wait and get the touch/voice remote for all of them when its ready.

According to the release Netflix, Sports Bar Mode and YouTube will not be available at launch. These features will be available in coming months. Sorry, but I don't have any other details as to when.

One of the hold ups has been the Netflix app, from what I am hearing is they were waiting for Netflix to certify the app for the Hopper 3 which they haven't dont yet but I guess promise to get done by mid February.

It does PIP and is faster.

And I would like to add that I am very excited!

Yes the 52 remote will be available for $20 from DISH or your local retailer.

It will do PIP but will not support it at release.

The voice controlled, touchpad enabled remote will sell for only $20 ?

Doubtful the 52 remote is not the touch pad remote

 

[sculchy]

The touchpad remote is the 50.0.

I get the voice controlled/touchpad enabled one confused with the newer one that is just now coming out.

No, no price point or release date for the Touchpad voice controlled remote.

I'm not overly worried about Netflix as I have a 4K version of that on my TV, and there's really not much 4K on Netflix either.

So to be clear, if you want the Joey 4K it is $50 Plus $20 for the new Remote or $70 to make it just like a Joey 2.0 but many times faster and with PIP.
Am I reading this right?

 

[ewindowman]

So who will be the first to start a thread complaining about activation failure or wonky behavior?

I am with you ! I will let the other guys drive it around the block for awhile till I dive in .,The 922 is on sale . [emoji1]

Unfortunately, yes and 4K. PIP coming soon(Dish style).

So what is the advantage of being on the "DIRT waiting list" when anyone can just call and order tomorrow?
