newest equipment

[txhockey]

I am a long time customer and my latest 2 year contract is up in 2 months and did not receive new equipment last renewal. What is the latest receiver that is available? I have a 4k main tv and a hdtv with a mini genie receiver. What should I ask for and what is normal upgrade? Is there anything coming soon that I should wait for?

If you have a 4K set you need a HR54 and a C61.

the c61 will have to go on the 4k tv, and the hr54 on the hd tv

Don't forget. IF you are absolutely dying to have the one channel and Pay per View channels of 4K, you must also have a qualifying programming package.

Which I think is a really dumb idea.
I would want the main box on the nice new 4k set.

It looks like they are going to continue that way with the next system. Rumors at other forums say the gateway will be RG shaped and stand upright instead of laying flat. It kind of looks that way if you go by this slide in one of their presentations after the merger was announced. Unless plans have changed since then? I wonder if AT&T does focus groups asking them what they want with the latest equipment and go with that?

Sorry I should have added it doesn't have a TV connection.
