Dish owns sling why would they want to help direct?
They probably would have as good of chance w/DirecTV as they will trying to get ANY cable ops from leaving the Moto/SA set-top monopoly's - IOW's, a snowball's chance in HELL!!!

Home		 This is a Tru2Way cable box, they don't have to convince any cable company to leave SA or Motorola. All they have to do is sell them in stores or direct to consumers. Who then get a CableCard from their cable company and authorize this box.

If you read this the PDF & other posts, it is NOT being positioned as a consumer bought unit, but a cable-op supplied box:
