Reason for 622 delay

[ptech]

The reason for the delay on the 622's is that they have a problem with the USB port not being 2.0. They have the fix and are implementing now but within a couple of weeks there will be a an abundant supply of 622's.

With the USB not being 2.0, the main problem was that the Pocket Dish took 10 minutes to download one hour of programming, which is unacceptable to Dish.

I could of had a 622 today but decided to wait and not be a $1100 beta tester, $400 on a 211 was much easier to swallow.

Sorry but I can't give the source but I'm sure Scott can verify this.

$1100 ??

$400 211 $700 622 = $1100

Let us examine new version's changes - oh sorry, there are only week old versions.

10 minutes for a 60 min video transfer to the pocketdish is not bad. My 942 gets about 7 minutes to transfer a 60 min video over to it.

Makes it sound like another "excuse" then, doesn't it?

Better be out by March!

As long as mine arrives before my 3/4/06 install date - I'm not gonna have a problem.

$400 211 $700 622 = $1100

ok, the way I was reading it I thought he was paying 1100 just for the 622.
