Do they have any plans for Hawaii/Alaska/PR for additional HD channels?
It's nice to see them add HD channels on a fairly regular schedule, but none of them make it to us. There are some customers like myself that could view all of the recently added HD channels if they weren't blocked by Dish.

Please find out info on:
1. Info a Whole Home DVR that is better than what DirecTV is doing. Can you connect 3 HD DVRS together and watch recordings from any room from any DVR?
2. Super Station Package in HD
3. That new Weather channel they announced they were going to launch last year during the contract disputes.
4. A newer 922 type of model with Google TV built right in.
5. Info about Block busters merger. Will we see an unlimited movie streaming service like Netflix has on Dishntwork DVRs?

I sell TVs and I see very little interest in 3D right now. It's going to take some time, especially in Iowa.
I'm also going to be in Denver for Team Summit and am excited to hear some news. I would like to hear what Dish plans to do with the Blockbuster deal. I'm expecting Dich to talk a lot about connectivity with broadband. I've already noticed their shift towards more things being connected online and streaming video. One thing they mentioned last year that I was excited about but haven't seen is the ability to load recorded content from a receiver and put it on an iPad. Having content stored on a device would get rid of the problem of not being in an area with wifi to access your receiver.
I'm sure Scott will keep you guys updated instantly but if I see anything worth noting I will try to get it on here too or pass it on to Scott to make sure he hasn't already posted it.(Most likely he will be way ahead of me)

All it takes for an all MPEG-4 system is to have all customers use MPEG-4 capable receivers. Sounds easy, except when it comes to money. Oh, and dealing with customers with old TVs who don't want to view a cropped picture or anything letterboxed.

I should of stated it would be a new receiver. I thought I read somewhere that dish is coming out with a new receiver that will have google tv build in along with sling box can I be wrong?
There's nothing showing in our "In Development" section for receivers. Honestly, I don't see it happening.
All of us DIRT peeps are excited to meet up with Scott (hoping to attend Team Summit also).
Here's a shot from last year's Team Summit
That's Matt in the cool red beanie, Tony is rocking that maroon sweater, and Mary is looking stylish in that plaid skirt
