So in other words more than likely most cables from the past year or two are 3D ready.but its good to doulecheck, i was so glad because i didn't feel like pulling cables thru my smurf tubes.

At the end of my "tenure" with Dish in July 2008, they would NOT honor any new HD package deals even though I was a good paying customer for 10 straight years. But they treated Joe Blow from down the corner, who was a new customer thinking of switching to DishNetowork and give up comcast or DirecTV, like a freakin Royalty (anythign you need, Free HD for eternity, 30 decades of free HBO, just sign up Mr Joe Blow!) while the loyal customers of 10-20 years simply got the shaft! So I said Up yours Dish! And hello DirecTV, in the past 3 years DirecTV has honored EVERY SINGLE NEW CUSTOMER PROMOTION with a simple phone call and of course a resetting of my 2 year contract. They gave me two free HD-DVRs, once in the first year, and then another the second year, plus another for 8 months ago for only $50 (all leased of course). Dish employees, at least in 2008, would have had the laugh of their lives hearing me ask for the same benefits. Then comes the DirecTV referal program which completely makes the Dish one look like a joke. Everyone knows that I am proud to be a Coloradan, a late one for that matter (I got here as fast as I could) and I am all about supporting businesses based in Colorado, big or small, hence why I got my RS40 from my local dealer, but DishNetwork is one colorado-based company that I wish would just up and move out of town overnight. Sorry if I am bitter, but a company that does not appreciate their loyal customers, has no business being in business.

And yes, I can connect any USB or e-Sata disks to all of my DirecTV HD-DVR. units

2) When resetting a picture preset CMD gets set to mode 4 instead of off

3) Not 100% sure if this is a bug and may only be on RS50. High power lamp starts on its own when 3D signal is received on THX preset, but on presets such as Natural, Stage, it stays on low.
