I guess that this as good a reason as any to get a new PVR. I've got the last model that is HD and based on the TiVO OS. I have friends who are IU alum with the new HD PVR and I think that I like that interface better anyhow.
Either way, looking foward to being back on ABC this weekend and next!

You will want to get the 5 LNB dish sooner than later. Directv is eliminating all MPEG-2 HD for the more compressed MPEG-4 HD. So, since your Tivo HR10-250 is MPEG-2 only, it will not receive any HD channels in the near future, and that includes the ones that you currently receive. That also includes NFLST in HD which Directv has already announced is going MPEG-4 next season. They have been upgrading their good customers with some great prices according to most of the satellite forums that I visit, so don't hesitate to haggle with them until they meet your demands.
