Nope. It looks like there is enough chance of missing an OTA recording that I am not willing to make the plunge. With the current issues, it would need to be $99 or less for me to try it.
My plan is to sell all my Dish stuff in the spring and get a HD DirecTivo and two normal DirecTivos.

WOW! This is awesome! Are there any commitments or is this an outright purchase? I cannot commit to anything with Dish except the HD Pack, that's all I have and all I ever will have with them. I just payed $550 for my E85H 4 months ago.
Also, any news on a DVD burner for the 921 yet? If ever?

only 250 mb drive, 25 hours recording... I have about 75 or so hours on my Replays right now....6000u gos to my X1 now....
I got off the fence and took the bait after over a year of anxious anticipation. Two major factors led to that decision (besides the relatively affordable new price): Mark at DBStalk is pretty clear about the new (not released) software straightening out most OTA problems; and Scott here believes that 942 will be lease only. I'm not excited about having somebody else's property in my house - I'd rather own it. D* is not a real option for me because their premium channels are a bit more limited than E*, and D* costs more for their almost everything package. The likely software issues with 942 played a role too.
If we believe Mark, the new price of 921 is just to up HD sales by E* for the year. I don't know if that's true or not, clear-the-shelves fire-sale for 942 sounds just as likely. The volatile nature of this business and/or E* are a bit disturbing.

Is the top of the 921 vented or solid? I need to place my pj on top of it, I am out of room in my wall mount rack.
If I can get Dish to waive one of the $5 fees I have to pay, I will get one. Currently I pay a $5 Not Enough Programming Fee and if I add a 921 I will have to pay a $5 Extra Receiver Fee plus a $5 DVR fee.

Haven't heard anything for a bit.

If any Hd program is on I usually have had my Replay recording the downrezzed, and I wait and watch on my X1 streamed...now the 6000u will get them and I can watch in Hd...DarrellP said:
