What if one is exchanging a Hopper for a Hopper w/ Sling? would that be considered adding a Hopper? there probably isn't a clear answer on that. It might be time to buy a hopper with sling and swap it out for one of my original hoppers to avoid the risk of having to pay extra monthly later.

i'm just glad to see it in writing... still sounds crazy... in a good way of course
(we'll see how long the grandfathering lasts)

This is definitely better then what was first reported. I'm glad someone at Dish got the message.

Now that this has been announced. I wonder when the BIG announcement is coming?

 

[dare2be]

So, was the leak by DIRT planned as a litmus test for us trusty SatGuys members?

Glad I decided to wait until the last minute before I started making any account changes.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

There will be a big announcement on May 22nd regarding the Hopper for New Customers... and this announcement will be made at Team Summit.

Of course you can count on us posting it here when its announced.

Could be... we will never know... but to me it was great seeing everyone come together as a community and share our opinion on it.

Did they really think we would welcome a fee/package price increase?? Any thread I remember about a rumored or actual announced increase is always overwhelmingly against it.

First round of drinks in the Pub Members Bar and Grill is on me! What? You're not a Pub Member? Then join!

If I'm reading this right, 2 hoppers for existing subs remain at 10 + 7, if activated before May 22?
