Is it known if the 921 will be able to record OTA as well from the sat?

I believe you will only be able to record 1 OTA HD signal, since there will only be one OTA input.

I had planned on buying the 921 after it was out for a month or two, but will probably hold because of Charlie's talk of selling has gotten me a little nervous. Have we heard any more on this?

So are you able to record 1 OTA HD signal and still have 2 available tuners to record Standard satellite or does the 1 OTA signal take up 1 of the tuners? I figure it would be the latter.

I would assume that only 2 recordings from all sources at once would be the max. I'm sure it would be a lot simplier from as SW/programming perspective to limit this even though the HW may be able to handle this.

I don't think that the 721 from a HW perspective could handle a 3rd receiver. With the current SW on it now it sometimes has trouble with the 2. Just my opinion.
