I just saw my first Directv HD commerical. It said to call now to get up to 150 HD channels. 3X more than cable. Maybe this is a good sign and it is getting very close. :)

No you didn't........nice try DISH sub. The commercials that were around last Christmas openly stated that D* would "have" the capacity for all the channels! They now "DO" have the capacity.:D

Heisman........it seems that I shouldn't wager anything, as you switched services on 9/1/07! My apologies as I mispoke.......slightly. I knew that you WERE an E* sub, and of course didn't know that you had switched services. But, at times you were very antagonistic and pro E*.....weren't you:lol: Anyway, my apologies for speaking off the cusp. Why did you switch if E* does CURRENTLY have more HD? ST?

Heisman is now on D* because E* took too long to get the Big Ten Network. Just to clarify.

Correctamundo. I switched for BTN and NFLST. I am extremely happy I switched. You have no idea how bad E*'s SD is, unless you have had their service. It will be interesting to see if D*'s HD picture quality improves when the new sat goes live. Their current HD seems a little bit starved. I do miss my 622, as the HR-20 is an extremely inferior device. If antagonistic is calling them like I see them, or having a little harmless fun, then I am that! :)

If I were the marketing department at DIRECTV I would be preparing a huge advertising push for the fall, with the H21 just around the corner and the new satellite coming on line very soon.

:lol: :lol: No prob having some fun....none at all. Welcome to D*, no, I have never had E*. I never would have E*, I felt the way the Viacom deal was handled by them years ago was completely unprofessional IMHO.

I have 2 friends that I have convinced to switch from E* to D* this year, and they both said E* had the worst customer service that they have ever experienced! WOW!
