ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 30, 2005--EchoStar Communications Corporation (Nasdaq:DISH) and its DISH Network satellite TV service today unveiled a new feature that will give customers the ability to watch six TV channels and use an interactive menu, all at the same time. The mosaic of six networks and interactive channels on DISH Home, Ch. 100, is a convenient way for subscribers to watch and interact with their TV.

DISH Network pioneered the interactive mosaic -- six mainstream TV channels integrated with interactive features -- during the 2004 Summer Olympics and again for the 2004 Presidential Elections.

DISH Network viewers can select windows of popular networks including CNN, MSNBC, The Weather Channel, E! Entertainment, Bloomberg and Court TV through DISH Home. Full-screen video with audio automatically appears when viewers select a network window. Viewers can still go to their favorite interactive channel for customer service, news, shopping, sports, games and entertainment on DISH Home.
