I think he was asking about the $20 HD Ultimate, not HD-only. You know the one where an extra $10 gets you 6 HD channels (2 of which are going to be pretty dull in a couple months) and something that smells like fish.
Put QVC-HD in the AEP please.. Nothing lower.
And bring back Voom! Watching stuff from my DVR so reminds me of Voom again and again.

What happened?
Nothing to be sorry about.. It happens.. First one in over 5 years though. Its really no biggie as I will pay it and do the probation thing and consider it done.
I'm more worried about other things than this.I left Dish in Feb. 08- and opted for Direct TV for obvious reasons. I like HDTV. Two days ago I received my 6th phone call from Dish wanting to know why I left and arguing that they have the most HD. By going down the list of Direct HD channels with the Dish rep, Dish fell way short. He then offered to pay me for 6 months of my Direct charges, if I broke my contract with Direct as well as some credits for 12 months, if I came back to Dish.
As far as equipment reliability, I can only say that two dish receivers failed me the first 6 months I was with them and to date my Direct HDDVR's have not failed. Also, rain fade is now almost a bad memory.
I love this site but please do not become a shill for the Dish Network. Tell it like it is. They are still way behind in sports coverage, as well as the quantity and quality of HD offerings, customer service in English, and on demand services. They are desperately trying to catch up to their credit. They have a long way to go.

As a member who attended last year, and was unable to this year, I can say I sure wish I could've been there again!
I enjoyed the frankness of the meeting, and can completetly understand why some things discussed in that room will never leave that room! That is why we get the one-on-one with Charlie, and Eric.
It is a great special perk of being a SatGuys member, to have the chance to go to these meetings. I realize that most people cannot make them, but if you ever get the chance - it's definately worth it!
Scott - sorry I couldn't make it this year, but hope to be able to make it to Denver!
GoalieBob - I know how you feel! I came out of our meeting last year wishing I was able to be part of the "team". Charlie can seem to be bone-headed at times, but when you can talk with him, face to face, you know that he knows exactly what he's doing!

The reason Dish likes working with us is because we do tell it like it is. The good and the bad.
There are no worries there.
No, he was referring to the second tier of HD added to ATxxx SD packages - HD Essentials is the HD versions of the SD channels for $10, and HD Ultimate adds the HD-exclusive channels like Voom for an additional $10.
Many are feeling that it is no longer worth $10 additional with 15 less channels...
I was asking about the Ulitmate package price. Specifically the below channels are what left with the absense of Voom and they are not worth the $10 extra or $1.42 per channel that equates to. E* needs to drop the price or add some channels quickly.
