NOTE: Those interested, be sure to read message #15 in this thread for the latest update regarding this on-going situation.
For those of us hoping to add HD Discovery to our DISH 6000 receivers:
Dish will start offering the free 8PSK module for the Dish 6000 (required to get the new channel) when you commit to 1 year of HD Discovery Theater at a total price of $95.88 Starting on July 8, 2002.
You call 1-888-220-3474 to do this (not the regular Dish number.) How do I know? I just tried to order this package today (7/1/02) as per previous instructions from Dish. In other words, they changed their mind once before so the 7/8 date is only as good as the E* information is.
I'll be calling again on the 8th and let you know how things work out.
Incidentally, if you haven't seen the HD Discovery Channel you are in for a feast for the eyes. Great source material so far on the demo channel.
