Insanity! Three systems listed at a "Buy Now" price of $999. At the $699 MSRP, the 942 (barely) holds its own against the HD Tivo box by virtue of having a lower price in exchange of one less ATSC tuner. To pay the same price for fewer features? "I don't think so!"*

I'm going to watch these on ebay. I wonder if anyone will spend that kind of money. A lot of people paid premiums on the 921's, but they were the first HD dvr for E*. I don't think people will be paying this high of a price for the 942. But a sucker is born every minute. 
Not good, what if Dish sees that they sell for the higher price on Ebay and then they decide to RAISE there price as they know they are selling at that price?
Wait 10 days then buy one from your local retailer and support them or the retailer that is a sponsor on this board. Dont support an Ebay sale!
There WILL be more stock on 942s in 1-2 weeks.
Heck its not even the first week of April like they said on the retailer chat- Wait and buy one next week.

Give it two weeks and you'll be able to buy one for the normal price. I sold my rights to purchase a 2004 Pontiac GTO for $3,500 on eBay a little over a year ago. So, that person had to pay me $3500 just for the right to purchase the car at sticker price from the dealership. If that bonehead would have waited 6 or eight months, he could have received $3000 cash back + 2.9% financing from GMAC.
Patience on new products is always key...unless money is no object of course.
My pal Claude played a joke on me, well he tried at least.
Somehow he got a 942 box. He loaded it up with an old Dish 5000 receiver. (At least thats what I think it was.) and he sent it to me. We the joke was on him because I didn't open it imediately like he thought I would.
Yesterday he called me and asked me where I wanted my real 942 shipped to. And thats the one he talks about above.
So no I didnt have a real 942 like I though (although I did have a real 942 box) But in a few hours I will have in my hands a real 942.
Sorry for the confusion, Claude likes to pull stunts like that.

The D* trolls are baaaack.
Fill in standard retort of waivered distants, superstations, extra premium movie channels, blah blah blah,...
We GET it. D* has more reliable boxes. Now go back to watching your EPG scroll by SLOOOOOWLY while searching through the illogical channel placement and leave us alone. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Evil, evil man.
I LIKE him!
You DID spoil his fun by not opening it right away.....Bad Scott! (slaps back of hand)
WTF is this all about:
THE RECEIVER HAS PROGRAMMING PAID FOR ONE YEAR. IT WILL GIVE YOU ALL CHANNELS. AMERICAS EVERYTHING, HBO, CINEMAX, HIGH DEF, EVERYTHING.
so is it hacked or did he already pay for it?
Do not touch this one...
