Will you buy the 411 or 211 when it is released

[bobd]

I was wondering what all you guys are going to do when these become available.

 

[n0qcu]

Since they apparently do not have a UHF remote I will not get one.

 

[JH1949]

Not until the Voom problems are fixed. And even then, will probably wait for the 962.

 

[boba]

If you want to stay with DISH what choice do you have? These are the only product that will be available in MPEG4.

 

[Poke]

Question should be has anyone got one yet?? Scott have you heard anything when you might get your hands on one?? I notice on Dish site they are listing software updates for the 411 and 211.

 

[mdonnelly]

Don't want one, won't get one until it's forced upon me. I like my 811's (finally).

I like my leased 811s and I don't see for them until they offer MPEG-4 HD. They do the job and without too many problems. I would prefer a 942-like inteface and exhanced Program Guide, but I can live without one.

 

[BlackHitachi]

I would take a 211 for free if dish wants my 811. At this time i see no reason to give up my 811 except for another 942!

 

[BFG]

If i'm offered one for free then sure

 

[Stargazer]

No affordable HD DVR no deal. They will have to give me an even swap or I will seriously consider DirecTv. No more games, no more expensive purchases. I already invested the money that I am willing to invest in the current technology. If they want to force a swapout then they can do it at their cost, not mine.

I want a DVR MPEG4 receiver. I have a 921 and a 811 in addition to a 501, a 301 and a 311. I also have the Scientific Atlanta 8300 from Cablevision. I prever DVR's and will probably wait until a MPEG4 is released.

 

[BrettTRay]

I would have probably bought one when they were available because I've got bored with this same old 811 that I've had for years if it wasn't for the current voom fiasco.

 

[Horsnuts]

I will wait for the mpeg4 HD DVR, and hopefully it will come with the UHF remote!

 

[bobd]

Can anyone point us to a site that has all the specs and some pictures of these new recievers.

Thanks brett this is a very good link I go to dish network site every day for the program guide to see whats on I am surprised I missed this.

 

[J. Allen Head]

I think i'll wait untill the MPEG4 HD-DVR hits the streets, Hopefully at an affordable price.

 

[MikeD-C05]

Dvr or nothing for me. I haven't had a regular non dvr receiver since 99.

Ditto, I too am a DVR addict. I don't care how spectacular the picture is, it's worthless to me without the DVR buttons.
