Where to order

Where's the best place to Order Directv? Should I order from directv.com or go with say best buy or another website?

If you're talking about programming, I'd suggest calling Directv or doing it online. Calling has worked well for me. Whenever I've had to activate programming (my initial hookup and after a move) I called and spoke with a rep that had me up and running in less than 5 minutes.

If you're looking to order new service you can try these folks http://www.valueelectronics.com/ or go to a BestBuy or CircuitCity.

I ordered from Value Electronics myself and found Robert and Wendy to be very nice to deal with. Got the best deal I could find on a combination of the Hughes HTL-HD, Hughes Tivo, Hughes Director, and 3LNB Dish after comparing several of the online vendors. They offer a $50 rebate for self install as well if you are willing to do the install yourself. With me being a previous E* customer all the wires were run so it was simply switching out the dish and receivers... worth 50 bucks to me.
