After lamenting on it since I got my Sony Bravia HDTV a week ago, I finally broke down today and bought the BellExpressVu 6131 HD receiver (aka Dish Network Solo VIP 211k). I came to the conclusion that watching regular SD TV on a Hi-def TV just doesn’t cut it.

Luckily you can turn the 6131 into a DVR by adding an external USB hard drive, so I got a 1TB external USB hard drive. Too bad for me that I won’t be home for another couple of days to connect everything. I booked my appointment for later next week (some confusion on the *exact* day). I will be able to get some of my channels before the installer gets there, since my old dish is still on my building.

The install will be sh*t-simple for the guy: re-aim the dish to Nimiq 1 (91W) & put the additional LNB on the dish’s arm … then I’ll be good to go.

I picked out most of my HD programming today (thanks to a very helpful phone tech at BEV named Cal). I’ll be able to plug in my receiver and watch some of the SD channels when I get home, but won’t be able to “revel in all of HD’s glory” until the installation tech does his miracle.

Since my current cable provider (Persona/Eastlink) just doesn’t seem to care about bringing HD programming to my neck of the woods, I guess that I will be saying, “Sayonara, cable!”. Fare thee well, cable, you have served me well. Meanwhile, Persona has lost one more customer to Hi-def satellite TV. They’re just charging too much for their Motorola digital TV box. Take this as “words of wisdom”, Persona, because you’ll continue to lose more customers if you don’t upgrade sooner in my area.
