ESPNU HD would be a very welcome addition! Come'on Dish! Scott - You must not have watched Deal last spring. At one time, they had filled the entire right side of the board with $1M cases (13 total!) and still couldn't get a winner. Whereas TPIR gave away $1M to three winners in four weeks when it aired special nighttime shows last spring.

Scott, I'm locked into a DISH Latino subscription for another 9 months. The programming, though, is terrible! It's a random jumble of some networks that Directv and even cable wouldn't put on. Why doesn't DISH keep up with the Joneses? The other guys keep innovating and improving their offerings. Manny

Manny, doesn't matter. THey have their 1.4 million subscribers and are not motivated to improve product, unless the people start leaving. You will have to deal with it for 9 months. Consider it giving birth then.

BC, that may be, but you are missng the point. We all know DISH Latino's success rides solely on getting to market first and their retailer netwrok. Their programming strategy is just "put anything on" - they have no one there who knows programming and strategy ofr Hispanic mkt. Their time is coming. Look at growth rates for Comcast, TWC and expecially Directv compared to DISH. This is the biggest story in hispanic pay tv now. maybe you should talk to laura martinez. For subscribers, yes, it's a bad situation. For everyone else, the market is starting to win out over dISH's retailer system. Smart subscribers like Manny, who can afford their bill and keep paying, will continue to leave DISH, leaving them higher churn and lower margin. And lower valuations in general - can you believe that over 10% of their base is DISH Latino? Sorry, BC. They will be motivated to improve product soon, even if that means hiring people who know the market.

After being a Dish Network customer since its inception, we decided to high def. The Dish tech came out, told us we could not get the HD signal, (we are in the mountains in Georgia) but we could get the HD on the new satellite that is now in position. Its called the eastern arc satellite. We could not get authorization for this satellite, even after we spoke to 3 supervisors and told them our situation. They were very rude. We are very sad and disgusted with Dish Network. We have never have a problem till now. We are in the process of changing to Direct TV. We were paying Dish $150.00 per month. You would think they would want to keep a good customer.

Will the launch of Echostar XI allow us in Puerto Rico to be able to have all the HD channel lineup? It has always been denied to us even though we get a very strong signal from 61.5.
