Any idea when Milwaukee will get the roll-out  ? I have not even seen a time frame for this DMA

I'd assume sometime Q1 2012.  I don't think a schedule has been released yet that includes our DMA.  

I've been testing the new guide since early September on my HR22 and I like it a lot.  It's faster/more responsive and looks a lot better than the current blue guide.

Christmas weekend I used the trick to download the new guide on our main TV and it worked great. This morning DTV pushed the software to our bedroom box and the menus are different. Is there any way for the main TV's guide to catch up with the bedroom box? I reset the main TV with no success.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry. Main box is a HR20/100 and BR is a H24/100
Thanks.

So the main is the "CE" release ? If so just use the "trick" now to download  the "NR" version on that box.
You can go to the CE forums for more info.

Got the update this morning on both my HR20 and HR22.  So far so good.  Smooth and fast.
