Once you begin using a DVR you'll never want to go back. That's a great deal if you ask me.
One thing to point out is that they will probably lock you for another 18 months contract. If you're a person that has to have the latest HD channels and are thinking about switching to Directv, don't do it.
I agree 100% It is absolutely worth it. The DISH HD/DVR is the best on the market according to CNET.com. Plus, DVR is one of those things where you'll end up wondering how you ever lived without one!
Yes, thats a good deal. It's so easy to use my 4 y old, and 7 y old kids know how to use the DVR. I would try for 3 months of HBO\Cinamax that will get you a good start for your DVR movie collection.
What happens with my 211 do I keep it or will they want it back. I am pretty sure I got it on a lease. I think they said I would get a DVR that would operate 2 TV's. Seems like a good deal. Will have to get a OK by the boss. Thanks for the advice.

This can not be more true. When I travel I find myself reaching for the rewind or pause button all of the time. :up
Check out the thread about Christmas gifts from Dish. You might be able to get a 722 instead of the older 622 for the $49 upgrade fee, but you need to do it before Christmas and and be persistant!
I just got off the phone with Dish and this don't make much sense. So maybe someone can explain.
I asked DN about the $99 Christmas special. The DN salesman checked and he said I could get the 622 DVR for $63.
I asked if I would also get the rebate and he said yes. (He did not specify the rebate amount) He was clear that only $63 would be charged. This was going to be for the 622DVR. They are going to install it on the 28th. I figure they would just mail it to me.

I don't know what the last deal you just got Steve is, but I wanted to chime in and remind you that you will also pay each month in order to lease the DVR. So add in ~$5 to your monthly bill as well.
Get the 722. It gives you 55 hours of HD and I think 300 hours of SD video.
You can not go wrong with this unit
Should already have the lease receiver fee for the 211 so the price increase would be 5.98 for the DVR fee.
The $5.00 is for lack of phone connection. The $5.98 that DDGTomahawk mentioned is for the DVR fee.
You could always connect the DVR to your internet and the $5.00 fee would be waived. This allows the box to phone home via your internect connection.

Do anything you can to stay away from signing/extending a contract. There is a lot of uncertainty with Dish right now.
Yep, the 622/722 have active already. The 211 has the ethernet port but it's not active yet.
