So if anyone can gimme some advice.. i'm a bit torn. I'm gonna get my HD STB soon, but just trying to figure out which one to get. I'm trying to balance between getting the best set, but also saving $$$ ,don't we all know this feeling? Anyways, the Magnolia HI-FI store in my area, is offering a deal... 3LNB Dish and Hughes E86 STB for $499. And if you're a new Direct TV customer,, then u also get a $100 rebate. Unforunately, i already have DirecTV, so no rebate... but still at $499 for STB and dish.. its a pretty good deal. The other thing is, i don't really need the dish. Although I only have the 2 lnb elliptical dish, so i could swap the dish although it might be easier to buy the sat C kit and just intall it without having to take down the old dish. So i think i wanna get this, but then i hear that the Samsung T165 is the only unit that can output Svideo and component simultaneously allowing me to use my tivo without having to worry about switching it manually from SD to HD. So now i'm torn about getting the Samsung, which obviously i will have to pay more for. So do you all think i go for the deal? or pay the extra bucks for the convenience?
Thanks
