One more option. No contract, but losing patience. I'm looking soon. Must have an OTA tuner and be able to run one line. I'm not sure if the new D* switch is being used yet.

Which is 1.3% of what E* would get for renting out the two HD channel slots instead of giving us USA-HD and SciFi-HD.
Methinks it's time for Scott to change the domain name to:
ImpatientGuys.US
A few more options would be nice. Like I am holding am not happy about the lack of newer HD, voom sucks and I don't want to switch just yet becasue D* does not do OTA and their DVR is not as nice as Dish, but I will probably down grade my service for now and watch more HD/BD discs.
Im staying with dish becase 1 contract 2 Dvr 3 dish had more hd than derect for a while
and i can wait for the new birds to go up

Not in any contract, but staying with Dish for now! Wife hates when I change providers and get different channel #s! Plus we do like our Dvr's and the ability to run a second tv from it! Would be nice to have more of the new HD channels that are coming available, but we will be patiant and see what happens!
While I am not jumping ship, it's not because I "could care less". Of course I want more HD... and a couple other channels that are available on the other provider, but, it's not enough to make me jump ship. I've been very happy with Dish and actually have always gotten pretty good service (other than my rebate issue as of late). I don't care much for D*'s hardware or user interface... I know, with time, Dish is going to have the HD content we want and I'm willing to wait it out.
I'm not going anywhere. I would be spending anywhere from $25-$35 more per month to go with DirecTV or Comcast in order to get the channels that I NEED...(okay, need is a bit strong, but I do watch A LOT of soccer).
I've been on the original flavor HD Pak with my 811 for 2 years now, so in February, when I upgrade to the 211 and $10 Essentials Pak, I'll get my 15 "New" HD Channels.

Yes. And I'll bet most the contract people stay put as well when things level out.
Dish is planning for 3 sat launches. That doesn't sound like they are shying away from improvements to me. These things don't happen overnite. I'm sure they'll be new HD on the way.
Two satellites are done and waiting for a rocket to go up on. They should have launched last year, but didn't because of problems with ILS and Sea Launch. Echostar doesn't have it's own corporate launch facility in Denver or Wyoming (but not a bad idea given the number of slots they've applied to operate from).
The third, a Canadian satellite that Dish will use extensively from 129°, is scheduled to launch late this year, so I suspect that one is close to completion also.
I suspect that those are moves towards expanding their HD offerings.
