PSA: DirecTV Multi-Room DVR Beta

Did you get it working? If so, what's the verdict?

Works great! Absolutely love it so far.

I'm on a wireless network, so it's not 100% perfect.

One DVR is attached via 10/100, the other is via 2.4Ghz 802.11n (about 4 rooms away). It seems to stream from the wireless to the wired better than the other way around. The only difference is very occassional pixelation when streaming HD programs though.

Charging a monthly fee for this is kinda stupid though, IMHO. Heck, my ancient ReplayTV's had this.

Yeah, don't get the monthly fee. A reasonable one-time charge? OK, I can deal with that. It's basically a firmware update though. It's not as if it costs more bandwidth. Stupid decision by them, particularly since they have a commercial out blasting Dish for special charges.
