My contract with DISH is up Sept 7th, was looking at options with Hopper vs Directv HR34. Directv offer was very good, 1 HR34 (5 Tuner) and 4 HD DVR HR25's, NFL 1 year, movies etc... However I like the GUI and apple ipad like interface and guide of Hopper. Dish offer was for 2 Hoppers and 3 Joey's. Anyway.... I'm staying with Dish, Like program guide and GUI better, but what they are going to do is 3 Hoppers, 2 Joey's and 1 Sling, They are also doing some monthly credits for the year, and movies channels free 3 months then 1/2 price for 6 months. My hardware cost out of pocket for the 3 Hoppers was $ 150. Looking forward to the new set up... I currently have 4 HD DVR's 622.... Of note the 1 hopper will be isolated from all the other units, but I'm ok with that, as it will be in our daughters tv room, so she will not be able to delete our programs, she will be on here own Hopper set up.
