I'm looking to switch to D*. I'm look to get the HD DVR. Do they have a package for a 2 room setup? I'm just looking for 1 HD DVR and 1 standard, maybe a DVR too. Thank you.
Hi, I'm thinking of switch from E* to DirecTV.

sorry for not replying back. thank you for your help. I decided to go to my local best buy. looks like i even save more. i got the hd10 250 for 999.00 with a $50 rebate and another DVR for $99 and a $50 rebate. then i got a $150 gift card for having over a $999 purchase. so i'm happy with that.

Don't know yet. They install it waseday. But I think I'm going to enjoy it with all the Tivo feacher it has the I've read in the manual. I need to ask. would the installer mind if i hooked ever thing to the TV's the wires and stuff so it would save the time would they care? they would only have to put 2 more hole upstairs and change the dish from E*s TO D*s since the mast is there. but they'll still have to change the wires. i want new wire.
We're at $879.00, double boxed and shipped to your door. We also throw in our 5 yr. extended warranty and 6 color imprinted HD DVR shirt. Of course, we do not charge sales tax on out of NY State sales.

the installer will be more then happy for you to hook everything up before he comes, he gets less work to do, and gets paid for not doing half of the job

Great. the less stuff he has to do, the more time I have to enjoy it.
got my D* installed today. Only took 45 minutes since they used most of the E* stuff was still up. They even installed a multiswitch for me for free. YAY.
So far, the pic qual is great and the R10 kicks the crap outta the Dish 500. So many options, so little time.

I am sore from a 921 and was wondering what your return policy is? I am not expecting to need it, but after going through two 921s and giving up I am reluctant to order one unless I know I can return it if there are problmes. My main concern is OTA DTA. I will be using the DVR for 50%+ OTA DTA and want to make sure the ATSC tuner is at least on par with the 921.
Now that I'm switching and getting my install up Wednesday morning. Would it be a problem if i canceled my E* account after? Or do i have to do it while I'm still hooked up to E*? Thanks

I'd wait until your D* install is up and running, just in case you run into any problems (like being able to see the 101 satellite
).Yep, just wait. Had D installed on Saturday and I cancelled E on Sunday. They didn't hassle me but didn't try to make me any deals either. Probably because I had already switched. They will ship you out boxes to return your receivers and LNB if need be and you have 15 days from cancellation to have them back to E.
yeah I second what scrotus said, its alot easier and that way you can say I switched its over, and you don't get hassled
