Hi again,
I just moved to Texas and put my account on "DishPause" before moving. TimeWarnerCable has an ok deal here for Satellite subscribers... $40+tax/month for 1 year for 1 HDTV PVR settop box that gets all non-premium channels and HDTV channels and service to a 2nd tv (but no settop box for the 2nd tv), and Showtime (incl. HDTV) free for 6 months. they just want a copy of a satellite bill that's less than 90 days old.
I emailed Dish to see if they would be interested in matching this offer, and received a call within a few hours from a nice lady in Denver (ie-with Dish).
Unfortunately, she didn't seem to up on Dish's promotion (I'm assuming she wasn't intentionally lying). She said Dish is offering the HDTV package free for 6 months only to new subscribers who purchase one of the the Dish "HDTV Bundle's" (Dish HDTV and Dish HDTV receiver). She said she could offer me the HDTV package (TNT HD, ESPN HD, etc) for free for 6 months. That appeared to be the best she was willing to do.
I've got a 7200 and a 921...can take the 921 back to CostCo...just trying to decide if I want to get Dish installed or go with cable.
