Dish Network DTVPal Now Available - For $59.99
The Dish Network DTVPal digital-to-analog converter is now available from the official website. When it was first announced as the TR40 back at CES the price target was given as $39.99, the value of the government coupons, which would’ve made it ‘free’. However, between then and now things have changed, and the release pricing is $59.99, so the box is $19.99 after the coupon, plus $8.95 for shipping. So it will cost you $28.94 to get a DTVPal from the official site, if you have a coupon, or $68.94 without one. You can order one or two DTVPal’s at a time, though there is no discount on shipping for ordering two. Dave Zatz’s unboxing videos will give you a look at the DTVPal.

I got the same message, I called the number bracing myself for a sales pitch but none came they were helpful in taking my order
The only sales pitch was a polite “thank you for ordering from Dishnetwork. The CS Rep said that it was some kind of glitch for
Existing customers. They did hit me for double shipping for two and taxes.
