Well, we are thinking about switching to E* from D*. We really like the Encores, The Movie Channels, MGM HD, and HD Net Movies. About the only movie channels (that are uncut and commercial free) we get with D* are TCM, IFC, and Fox Movie Channel. So, we are thinking about the Gold 250 with Gold & Platinum HD. We have a relative that has it (I just switched them a few days ago to Gold HD to Gold & Platinum HD without any problems, too.); so, that's how we found out about all the movie channels. We barely watch D* anymore; we are not big sports fans (no offense to anyone who is either). I actually find that E* has a lot of sports channels, too. I did a little "research" on E*'s website and came up with this list of fees of what we plan on getting: Dish Network--4 rooms Classic Gold 250 with locals $62.99 Gold & Platinum HD $10.00 DHPP Insurance $ 5.99 1st Duo Reciever $ 0.00 Included in Classic Gold 250 cost TV2 connection $ 0.00 if connected to continuous phone line (otherwise, an additional $5 charge) 2nd Duo Reciever $ 7.00 TV2 connection $ 0.00 if connected to continuous phone line (otherwise, an additional $5 charge) SUBTOTAL(w/o tax) $85.98 + tax Is this correct? Any other advice? I think installation, the receivers, and all are free for new customers signing a contract.
