it in HD. I love being able to see HD locals and the Altitude channel in HD.

* Note: Blake was on the ice in all six of the scores by the Avs

Reggie..how did you get your new dish?! Does it support the new HD-DVR too? If that is available?

Default Looks like it is available..but is backordered at this time...

You can get on the waiting list by dial 1-800-388-6597

$99.00 to upgrade those that already have an older HD-DVR like the HR10-250.

Default psst

it wasn't the cable industry that invented it. If they had their way, you wouldn't have a DVR at all.

You can thank companies like TiVo who took a big chance, succeeded (at least at the time, TiVo is probably numbered in days now), and completely rewrote the book.

Default I got both installed last Saturday

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/102/dsc02139.jpg"></center><p>I was lucky in that I had left several messages at the Greeley Ironwood phone number and finally got someone to answer. When I told them who I was they talked about a long Q and then he said he might find one for me (think he bumped someone in the Q) and they set up the appointment for three days hence - that Saturday.

The new HR-20 takes some getting use to if you have had TiVo. But there are some things that are great - like how you do not loose your picture when going to the menu (not guide) - but the recording and setting up repeat programs is not intuitive - but after I got over my being a male I read the manual (must have been some estrogen in my blood)
