No, my comment wasn't a jab at all.
My comment was that as you haven't paid for the box (fact) but if you had paid $400 bucks and it just provided you with an annoying cause of frustration (as in not working correctly), I can see why the earlier poster would be annoyed enough to call the box junk. Just look at the history Dish TV has on this site for customer frustration.
My respect also extends to the fact I would be keen to read your review of the box, yes you have provided a few more comments now, but again, respectfully this isn't a review.
Do you actually have an A2 box to make these comments? freitasm got one sent to him as the nature of his job, I have purchased one myself mid Dec and had a few teething problems at the start, but since the update to 118 it is working really well so far and find it quick and easy to use, (even my wife said it was easier to use than the T2200 we had).
Are there any question you want answered on the box?
No, I don't own one of these new Dish TV boxes, but I don't think I need to own one either to be able to make the comment that if anyone had paid circa $400 for the equipment themselves, and it was causing frustration by not working as expected, I can see why people may form the opinion the box was junk - that's all I was saying.
I want to like this box, I really do - my interest was in how it handled 3 x HD recordings at once, but TBH I haven't read an actual review of this product.
You mention freitasm received one as part of his job? That's cool - but will he publish a review? If not on these pages then elsewhere?
