Note that faster ISP connections provide faster VOD downloads.  But, you're correct that faster Internet has no bearing on the speed of the DVR functions.

Thanks. Does the Gemini Air work with the DTV Stream no contract service?  Does the Gemini Air have more memory and faster processor than the "Gemini" C71KW-400?  Will it work faster through menus, etc?

NBC and adding fiber to our system to go faster...NOT!!!

Am I going to get credit since you took away NBC from AT&T?  You can do away with all those music channels and give me back NBC.  I don't care about those music channels your company had established. Also, when you guys called me about adding fibers to my system early this year.&nb

I was under the impression that the reason the 2250 fixes the problem had to do with a different sound processing chipset, rather than a faster overall CPU, but I suppose that could be it too.  If the 2250 DOES have a faster CPU, I can tell you that

I had a vip1225 hooked up via HDMI to an Onkyo receiver (HT-S8400 to be specific) and I had problems with audio dropouts on surround.  Every few seconds, for a fraction of a second, the audio would drop.  It drove me nuts and I tried everything to fix it..
