DirecTV Gemini feedback?

What’s the general feedback on the new Gemini unit? I’ve been told I'm eligible for it, but I’m hesitant about being an early adopter. Another concern is that it would tie me into a 1-year contract, which I don’t have with my current account. What do you all think?

Right now, I am not a fan for the NEW, "All-In-One Gemini Receiver," at the current time.  From reading, there seems to be some bugs that need to be solved by DTV software folks.  

Perhaps the bugs have been resolved and some may chime in  to support the Gemini Receiver.  Or, they are not experiencing any issues.  I am on the waiting list, long story short.

Thanks @Juniper the agent said 1-year. So that's interesting and requires clarification before I accept and install.  
The other question - is it worth it? It's just another box I suspect.

What equipment model(s) do you currently have?

Honestly, I have no clue because it's been a few years since I received new equipment (and I'm currently a free-agent).  Looks similar to DIRECTV HR24 HD Receiver but at least 3 to 4 years old. 
Along with 4 satellite receivers scattered about the house. Sorry I wish I had better info to share.

If you're happy with your current equipment then there's no need to "upgrade". It sounds like you don't currently have a Genie box (HS17 or HR54), so your "upgrade" would require that, too.
