Dish Network came to CEDIA and left the gloves behind, as it proudly (and rightfully, at the moment)
proclaimed to be "the leader in HD" while simultaneously disregarding that
other company who'd likely disagree. Within the booth, however, there were a number of enticements, including a placard that stated that Dish On Demand HD would be "coming soon" to the
ViP722. Additionally, a wide array of Dish STBs and DVRs were out on display, and one particular ViP722 was located above a sign which announced that "Dish Network IPTV" would be "combining satellite and internet-based entertainment" in the not-too-distant future. Finally, the firm had a demo of how
Movies on Demand would be handled and also had a couple of its receivers
hooked up to external HDDs, so make sure you peep the gallery for all the photographic minutiae.
