I know they have upgraded some friends of mine that have the HD Tivo for free to get them on their DVR. (They say the HD Tivo won't get all of the HD channels which doesn't quite make sense to me.)

Also, it sounds like you already have everything pretty much taken care of, but a friend of mine had to call and make sure the installation guy had the correct LNB - the CSR didn't have that in the order and would have had to come out a second time. They were only going to bring out the new HD DVRs/Receivers not a LNB that would support them all.

Congrats though, the DTV HD is the best. I'm sure you will be happy with it.
There shouldn't be any problem getting the correct LNB since there are three dish types and no LNB will fit anything except it's own dish type.
