i think echostar should worry more about adding more HD to there service than other things
Yeah, sure. Does the mobile TV thing require a box for every cellphone? Maybe a satellite on top of cars? Or, just on top of buildings? Can you watch inside a building?

Just saying how ridiculous this idea is for DISH. When companies leave their core business, they forget the small things or get distracted then both operations are a failure. Plus, if you can only call where your cellphone likes, how can you watch TV everywhere?

I do agree that I would love more HD, but adding channels with hardly any content for the sake of adding a channel is lame too. I watch a lot of SciFi, but most of the HD is stretch-o-vision. FX would be nice, but Charlie is fighting with Fox. The providers are playing the numbers game, I have more HD than you, but I would like to see actual HD programming, not just a channel.

It did not explode, it failed to reach the intended orbit. There are several options available to the sat owners and Dish is still on target with their roll out of HD locals. The Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg, FL. area got our HD locals right on schedule and Charlie has said the national HD roll out is also on track.

That will be tough, after the explosion of their last launch, a few weeks ago.
