Apparently I have not been paying attention to the new boxes coming out. I think I still have the 3416. The question I have is the DCX 3400 the best box I can get right now? I am tired of running out of room on my DVR. If I go in to...

Thank you so much for the quick reply and the simple, clear answer. 550 here I come!

Thanks for the number and info ksbarnz… Ok, I just got off the phone with Mitsubishi. The guy was not willing to just give me the firmware upgrade if nothing was wrong with my tv currently. I explained that I just replaced my bulb and...
