I just got a 921 and hooked it up last night. Also have a 721 for quite a while, I read here that they function similar to each other. However in the short period I found (2) 721 enhancements that are not in the 921.

1) 721 you can hit the dish key? (3) times to maintain (2) buffers. Swap flips between these just like pip swap. It is a pip swap just without the pip window. I find this great when watching (2) sporting events. Lose of this really hurts my viewing habits!

2) If I have a buffer build up and accendently try to change channels, it warns me.

I don't know what other 721 features are missing yet.

Any ideas if these are going to be added to the 921?

I can only answer your first question. It's doubtful you will see this in 921 as it is impossible to do PIP with an HD source as the 921's current hardware is limited.
