Cable lies (they have lied to me on a breadth and scale far beyond Dish)--wait, they all lie. The problem is that Charlie has chosen to inform his customers about coming products (and folks on this board get pissed if Dish doesn't tell anything). The risk is that people are disappointed when Dish misses the train.
The alternative is to do what all the others do and not say a word until the product or service is being rolled-out to customers (not counting the industry news sites that provide the most basic info with not hard quarter or dates given for its roll-out.) This way, no one is disappointed except the same people who cry when Dish won't comment on possible coming changes or equipment.
People, just stop perusing the boards such as this one and be a clueless sub like the vast majority out there who are extrememly HAPPY with Dish because they no nothing of what is supposed to be coming down the road, therefore, no disappointment, just pleased with the services they are receiving today. Otherwise, keep this view: you are being let inside for a glimpse of a lot of things that may come down the line, but, as with any business, it could all get shelved, as well, and if we are that ticked about it, stop giving Dish your business as that is the only thing any business understands. But to be fair, there have been a great many things that Dish has delivered on, including the external HDD that blows everyone else away. Like any business, they don't always deliver.
