HDTV/DVR Choice

It seems there are only three HDTV/DVR boxes right now.  One is DirecTV for $999.  I could buy a DVHS for less than that.  The other two are Dish and Comcast for $10 a month (basically).  I have Comcast cable and want to upgrade to HDTV/DVR cheaply.  Dish says it will hold 30 hours of HDTV.  Comast says it will hold 7 hours (according to my local rep in Atlanta).

Is there any reason I should not go with Dish? Will something better come out during the XMAS season such that I should wait a few months? Does Dish run a XMAS special each year (such as free installation) such that I should wait a month or two?
