Hey guys,

Is there anyway at all to like bridge satelite television? I ask because I am going to have to switch to DirecTV because I got a HDTV and my local cable provider... sucks! So I'm going to have to route the cable for the satelite to my receiver... But no matter how I look at it, I can't find a way to do it that won't be somewhat ugly (I hate exposed wires!).

Is there any type of wireless solution for this?

Thank you kindly!

Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
