To DISH from Alaska

[Jason Dalton]

Its nice to hear all you guys talk about the HD channels and new hardware out now.

I think I can speak for most Dish users in Alaska that we appreciate the work done to get service here and it has been nice that we've been able to offset the cable business here thats been a high priced monopoly.

I know Dish Network reads this forum from time to time.

So...I'd just like to throw my hat in the ring and ask Dish:

#1 Can you please make HDTV more accessible in Alaska?
#2 Can you at least address a future plan for HDTV in Alaska (other than LIL)?

I've accepted the fact I pay the same prices and increased prices as everyone across America for a reduced set of channels. And pay more for equipment to get that reduced set of channels.

I'd be interested in what some of you Sat Guru's think.

Thanks:)
