I'm OK, since I've got a Samsung HDTV converter, but I'm hoping that Echostar/Sling's TR-40 hits the market before my mom and grandmother's vouchers expire. If not, then it looks like the Insignia or maybe the Zenith, but they're $20 more. I'm seriously looking into the TR-50 (HD DVR) to replace my 11 year old ReplayTV, since it's only got another 10 1/2 months of real use left.

TV Genious: You can call and cancel the vouchers and re-order new ones to extend the vouchers. Just make sure that they DO NOT EXPIRE, as you cannot get new ones after the original expiration date. I did this to wait for the Echostar---

The reply from Ron C

"You can call and cancel the vouchers and re-order new ones to extend the vouchers"

seems to be wrong. I called 1-888-DTV 2009 on Apr 28 and they said
you CANNOT cancel and re-order.

But you can complain via snail mail to

Coupon Complaints
P.O. Box 2000
Portland Oregon 97208

and if enough people write in they MIGHT extend the cards.
