I already have a 722 DVR. I am confused as to which HDTV I should get. What is the quality difference between the 1080 vs 720? I am thinking of a 50-55 inch for the size and the only sports we watch are an occasional football game.

Input is greatly appreciated.

I am looking at a 1TB drive but the specs on Dishnetwork.com say max is 750GB, is that true?

I currently have the Family Pack w/locals and a 722 receiver with HD enabled. So, with this setup I usually get whatever freeviews there are as both an SD and HD channel. But, when the freeview ends (like the recent Bravo one), the HD channel stays in my guide, and the SD disappears. Currently, I'm getting both SD and HD Vs. freeview, and when that ends at the end of the month, then I'll know for sure.

Anyone else have this happening? Not complaining about free HD channels, but just curious. ;) ]]> Dish Network™ High Definition Discussion Taco Lover http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=168173 http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=168167&goto=newpost Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:12:59 GMT http://www.multichannel.com/article/388446-Sundance_Channel_WE_TV_Open_Routes_To_Asia.php What about us? http://www.multichannel.com/article/...es_To_Asia.php

Last research showed D's and Dish's "On Demand" was thru modem and had to be downloaded to watch

Dish's site now says only phone line needed
Have they changed to more realistic VOD approach?
