Thanks Skip, I have thought about you alot today.
Cable is not available here in the boonies, but if it were, I'd have it for the internet more than the TV. Dinny |

Wish I saw this about an hour ago. I just switched from DirecTV to Dish Network. Phone company bundled everything up for me and DirecTV wanted to charge me a bunch to upgrade to HD. The price was right to change, hope I don't regret it for the service.

It just DOES NOT WORK. It doesn't work. The only problem I had with Direct TV was a real bad rain storm, or go out to sweep snow off the dish. At least it worked. Cancel if you can. I hope you have better luck with Dish, but I would not count on it. Dinny |

DTV doesn't have 1080p as far as I know. I saw some ads for 1080p on Dish Network and it briefly made me feel jealous.

I've had dish network for over a year now with no problems and just love it. Had it previously at another location and had all the similar problems Dinny mentioned. The difference I think is the installation. This time the techs knew what they were doing and I have a good location out of the wind. Previously the dish was exposed and a would get blown off signal constantly.
Dish network does have 1080p but just on their video on demand purchases. Otherwise it is 1080i, but because my AV receiver has an upconverter, all HD signals are viewed as 1080p. It's like watching a Bluray all the time. Very sweet

I'm waiting to make the jump to HD. I don't know why. Maybe that's why I'm still waiting. Dinny |

Once you see a football game in HD you won't want to watch it any other way.

If you are going to want HD I'd go ahead and get it while you are switching. They will give you an HD dish and DVR I think. Once you're an established customer neither company will give you shit.

720p is good enough for me. It makes standard definition look blurry.
