HR20 - Release in August (LA to be the first)

[Satmeister]

Supposedly, the last H20 firmware update (July) included code to support Interactive. That said, it has to be activated on the D* side as well (or so I was told).

I'll believe it when I see it work on my H20. Shame to waste it on tennis...oops....there go the tennis fan flamers....

The July H20 update didn't include the Interactive code.

The upcomming release for the H20 should include the Interactive code that everyone has been waiting for...

But that is discussion for anothe rthread.

Has it started rolling out anywhere yet?

This Wednesday, the 16th, the beta test starts in LA, per a Retention rep I spoke to yesterday. He called it a beta test, whether it is or not, who knows. At least the damn thing will be rolled out.

If I remember correct, thats exactly the same thing they did for the AT9/H20; a "beta test" to Detroit. It should be called a limited scale rollout. So Fall 2006 just as listed in the plans.

 

[asousa]

how long are these things in "beta" test? When should be start seeing this thing everywhere?

 

[Upgrade Lately?]

The H20 and AT9 was here in Detroit about a month before national rollout.

Off topic I know, but I just got to know who your avatar is?

How often you get asked that? I know I asked a couple months ago.
You really should try to remember!!

Next time I find out who she is, I will put it in my profile, haha!

 

[Groundhog]

Finding out who she is is at least as important as hearing from the first person to receive an HR20. :haha

And, according to that poster at least, they are getting it free of charge even though they got the HR10-250 free.
