If you upgrade to Hopper you can only have Hopper / Joey equipment on your account. Meaning you would no longer be able to use your old ViP equipment.

No, different frequencies based on the Zigbee protocols. (NOTE: a few people who have been testing and training on the Hopper report that they HAVE been able to pair a 922 remote with a Hopper. But we do not have official confirmation yet.)

Folks please remember this thread is for QUESTIONS (and answers) ONLY. Do not use this thread as a disucussion thread. Thanks!
If you buy Joeys for guest bedrooms, can you avoid monthly fees except when activated for guest visits?
Nope not it, that means its hard drive can record up to 2000 hours of TV. (including Primetime ANytime and the Satellite Delivered VOD.)
Thats not the number of timers.
So..............? If I am an existing AT250 subscriber, am I to understand that the Hopper and the Joey HW will be supplied to me at NO Cost??
There is still some confusion in the other thread regarding the cost of the 1st Joey being included or not included. Are all Joeys charged the $7 fee or is the first Joey free? (Question seems to be coming up because the screenshot shows $7 fee for ADDITIONAL Joeys)
Since Dish can not do the upgrade or everyone at once, can we call to get on the list; or do we have to wait until March 15?
No Joeys are included. The first one will be $7/month. There is an estimate sheet from Schermann in another thread that spells this out very clearly.
(Not nagging that you should have seen it in any way, just offering it as my "source".)
Sorry.......still somewhat confused....existing subscribers at the AT250 level still must pay a $100.00 upgrade fee???

heres a ? I'm thinking about 1 Hopper 2 joeys . can I record 2 shows at same time and still watch live tv on all 3 units
Depending on how Dish rates you as a customer, it can be $100, or it can be free.
I'm mildly disappointed that multiple hoppers can't be linked together. Will there be a mechanism to select which hopper a joey links to at launch? Or will they be on seperate home networks that get connected later?
Initially I would need 2 hoppers and 3 Joey units. As I understand it, my hardware out of pocket would be $199. Is that accurate?
Fees would be 5x7 + 10 for whole house DVR?
