Newbie onboard...
Hi Guys & Gals, and HELLO to all!
While looking around for information and opinions, I came across the SatelliteGuys.US Forums and it looks like a good place for answers to questions I have now and will certainly have in the future.
I'm in the Portland, Oregon area where I've been a Comcast Triple Play subscriber for the past 2 years. My contract with Comcast is up on Nov 5. I've been investigating other options that will give me HD, Internet and Phone, perhaps lowering my monthly bill somewhat and for me, the most "attractive" one I've found so far is to subscribe to Dish Network along with Clearwire for my Internet and Phone services.
While the prices are attractive and will actually save me money over my Comcast subscription, I do have concerns since this venture into the satellite/dish area will be new to my experience (prior to Comcast, I had a similar phone/internet contract with Verizon, and Comcast for my TV HD).
I'll be perusing the Dish Network Forums for answers to questions I have and it looks like many of the answers I'll be seeking are already posted. If not, I'll go ahead and start a new thread where I'm sure my questions and concerns will be addressed in an expedient manner.
If anyone cares to comment pro or con regarding the Dish Network/Clearwire combo, I'd be happy to read your comments.
You all have a great day!
