You may want to verify that. The guy in retention during my argument the other day told me all channels were moving to mpeg4 come sept/oct and the HR10-250's would only be suitable for standard DVRS, no HD other than OTA.

He flat out told me all the channels from 70-99 would be going away on that box.

He also then told me they didn't want the leased HR10s back when they do the upgrade because of that reason. He said they are letting people keep them to use them as standard DVRs if they wish.
