A better question: Where is the 921?

[bills]

i don't think it will be out by December.

[skyh]

Thanks for the info, all - but I still have not been able to find any info on 921 features.

Other than a HDTV PVR I don't think anyone really knows what its going to be. I haven't really seen any specs on it.

[skyh]

Well, I don't have HDTV so I guess I won't worry about the 921 :)

[DarrellP]

skyh, you don't NEED HDTV to use a HDTV sat receiver. They will downrez to your analog TV and you will get a DVD quality picture in widescreen. You can also output the signal to a computer monitor.

Its the latest device E is working on to frustrate subs. It will have lots of bugs and although a nice product drive subs nuts and cost the company a fortune in tech support and general grief.

Perpetual the next software will fix whatever todays problem is, only to generate new issues....

I am not joking, unfortunately it appears E is unable to put out a rock solid PVR.

Sorry my 721 issues are getting the best of me.....

The TU921 will be manufactured by JVC. Look for the JVC TU9000 to be just a little different than the 921. Available 1st quarter (cross your fingers).

Martyva, you've got it backwards, Echostar is manufacturing the 921 as well as the JVC piece.

Echostar don't appear to be at Comdex next week, so I guess we'll all ask when we get to CES in January!
