Not that I didn't already know that, as it was also listed on their web site.  I already have two-year contracts for my DSL and cell phone, so what's one more?  It's well worth it to me since I save $25/month over cable and have lots more channels.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2008 12:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV 11 satellite launch officially delayed]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</guid><description><![CDATA[If you are complaining about DirecTV you must be young. Before DirecTV there was only cable and the options were zero. The service was awful. The picture quality was awful.<br>I'm glad DirecTV  exists. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff N.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2008 4:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV 11 satellite launch officially delayed]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</guid><description><![CDATA[A bit bitter andyj?<br><br>What price did you pay for themat the Consumer Eletronics store?  The $199 or the full price ownership price of $499 (or $800+ when they were first release).<br><br>The 2 year commitment is only for the addition of an advanced receiver, not when you just add HD service to your account (if you already had the equipment, but didn't have HD activated)<br><br>Anyway, back on topic...<br><br>I have received confirmation that this is not expected to be a lengthy extended delay, and was more of a minor... "lets make sure that is right" delay.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Earl Bonovich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2008 12:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV 11 satellite launch officially delayed]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey Earl, I didn't know you posted on Engadget as well.<br><br>Thanks for the update.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hooterman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2008 3:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV 11 satellite launch officially delayed]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</guid><description><![CDATA[Thanks for the update Earl.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff N.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2008 4:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV 11 satellite launch officially delayed]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/17/directv-11-satellite-launch-officially-delayed/</guid><description><![CDATA[No problem with the updates, and yes...
