That depends, if you do the CE's it happened about 3 months ago, if not it was send down via the normal process and you got it NOW.
Some have had it for awhile now, others not.

I have a HR20-700, I had a -100 and had the new guide on both if I recall correctly ... I know have 2 -700's so I know they both have the newer whiter screen.
Can you believe people were complaining about that when it came out ?

Some people would complain if you hung them with a new rope.

I haven't got the new guide yet. Something to look forward too!

The D12-300s just got (or are getting) a new update (1071). I has the new white guide and also the option for the guide to come up 1st, instead of the categories.

Does it display more than 1.5 hours of programming on the screen (from left to right)?

What about the HR21s?

No, but easy enough to push the arrow over , it will go up to 14 days.

We should point out it is only a new color scheme, not a new layout.

I've had it a few months and really like it.

Will the D10 get the new color scheme?

 

[jcrandall]

Yes, eventually this will be rolled to all the D* branded receivers, or at least it looks that way.

When I turned on my HR20-700 this morning I did get slightly new functionality. The notes said larger fonts in the menu (which I didn't see) and favorites being handled in a slightly different way (which I did see).

Does anyone have screen shots of the new guide layout?

 

[ONUOsFan]

Maybe I'm missing something, but it doesn't seem like much of a change to me. Maybe some "softening of the edges," but that's about it. When you guys said it was a new color scheme, I was expecting Orange or something....

 

[stuckingoo]

What's changed for me is that when I'm in the guide, I can hit the yellow button and change the filter on the fly. That is, I can choose HD only, sports, movies, custom 1/2, etc. Before I needed to backtrack into menu/favorites to do this. It's a nice improvement. Why isn't anyone else talking about this.....or is it insignificant?

Now if they can only update the channel logos in the guide as well
