ExpressVu is Introducing Rental Plan to Own. It starts July 10, 2011

Bell is introducing a new hardware payment option that will be available to new or existing Bell Satellite TV clients, the Rental choice plan:

·         Allows clients to make 36 fixed monthly payments for their TV hardware.
·         After month 36 and the final payment, the client has the option of keeping the equipment without ongoing monthly fees or returning the hardware to Bell.
·         With the Rental choice plan clients have the option of returning their equipment at any time with no penalty! Another way that Bell is providing flexibility to our client’s needs. All existing stackability rules, Greenfield offers, and Sweeteners will continue to be available.
·          Unlike rental, the Rental choice plan does not require our clients to pay a deposit up-front only to be reimbursed later when they receive their first bill.
o    Instead, a $30.40 activation fee will be charged on the client’s first bill when new Bell Satellite TV is ordered with Rental choice plan as the payment option.
o    Rental hardware may be fulfilled with either new or refurbished equipment.

New Shaw Direct Quad XKU LNBF


Shaw Direct is introducing a new LNBF type, xKu, to replace the Quad LNBF for all residential installations. This lnbf is avaliable starting on June 24th, 2011 for both 60 cm 75 cm dishes.
This LNBF looks very similar to the Quad LNBF. To ensure that the LNBF being installed is of the xKu type, locate the label on the back of the actual LNBF.
The x Ku LNBF is capable of supporting signal from the third satellite, Anik G1, scheduled to come online in the fall, 2012. The new satellite will provide space for many new channels.
From the picture above, you will notice three lnbs. From left to right: The first in the right is the existing and now discontinue Quad LNB. The middle one is the x Ku Raven LNBF used for 60cm dishes. and the one in the far right, is the new lnbf used for 75cm dishes.
In order for these lnbs to be tune properly, please refer the the following link: X KU LNBF Tuning.

It is high priority that the skew is setup properly. Otherwise, you won't get the third satellite with the new channels.
If you are an existing customer, Shaw Direct, should be able to provide youwith an upgrade with a minimum charge or next to nothing once the new channels lineup are start coming up on 2012.
Last and not least, if you want to save hazzles in tuning this new LNBF, you are better off to call Shaw Direct toll free number at 1 888 554 7827.

Outside ShawDirect Customers

As long as Shaw Direct continues sending the same strong signal as the previous two satellites, Shaw Direct Customers in USA and Mexico, should be able to enjoy the new channels when launched in the fall 2012.

4G Technology is coming up in Fall 2010 to Rural Areas

Barrett Xplore Inc. (BXI), under the Xplornet brand, announced that this Fall it is commencing a next-generation 4G network for rural Canadians, starting with terrestrial fixed wireless, and quickly followed by a new satellite network. This is the first commercial deployment of a national 4G network in Canada. For rural Canadians, the deployment of this technology will mean they have better access to faster, affordable broadband with higher bandwidth allowances. And this state of the art technology is coming to rural Canada first.
Bridging the Digital Divide
4G wireless and satellite means a new world of opportunity for rural Canadians. "Barrett Xplore's mission is to bridge the urban/rural broadband divide in Canada," said Barrett Xplore CEO John Maduri today. "4G means the goal of bringing fast, robust, affordable broadband to all Canadians, regardless of location will be achieved in the very near future. The potential impact of rural broadband can't be overstated. From telecommuting, to new business in rural areas, to distance health and education, rural broadband can change the face of Canada."
