10 years is along time to be locked into any type of contract. With
technology changing so quickly, is this what we really want to do? This
product might be attractive now but is this the complete and total answer
for the next 10 years? I agree with Mary!

Am I the only owner who is concerned about the board taking a
(semmingly)
huuried vote on the dish vs. Prime issue?
I am e-mailing them urging them to postpone the vote until we
can further
examine our options. To be forced to accept ONE service is
causing me
consternation, not to mention the fact that I will be locked
into this service
(whether good or bad, affordable or expensive) for TEN years.
I am asking
that they look for a provider that does not insist on exclusivity.
Yes, the security camera they offer sounds nice, but weighed
against the fact
that I will be compelled to have Dishnetwork, it seems that we
might be better
off purchasing a camera and allowing owners their choice of TV
providers.
I have been attempting, since last Tuesday, to contact Dishnetwork
by phone.
I have yet to get through to them, encountering a busy signal.
If this is
indicative of their customer service this might also suggest
that this would
not be a good decision.
A decision of this magnitude should not be made hastilty. This
affects the
"resale-ability" of our units among other things. If you
agree, please ask
the Board to postpone the vote or to offer to present it to the
entire
association (all owners) for a vote.
Mary
