Good luck trying to get the D4 Platinum reciever. I tried for weeks with no luck. I finally called Hughes and they said it won't even ship until mid august so I don't know why some sites have it listed as "In stock". I wound up with the Sony A4. Having had a hughes box originally I liked the menus better on the Hughes. If you want to read more about the Hughes D4 Platinum check out Home Theater Magizine June issue. They really liked the Hughes D4 but didn't care for the Hughes D-VHS machine
