Check out the DVDO Edge processor from ABT. One Call has a refurbished model for $399 (free shipping). It comes with a 1-year warranty from DVDO, but you can get more coverage, if you want it, from One Call. Ask them about their return policy on this item, just in case you don't like it.

You can read product information at http://www.anchorbaytech.com/dvdo_edge along with user and manufacturer input at http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1051246 (it's a very long thread).

Don't take this the wrong way, as I'm not trying to put down your purchase or your financial capabilities. Unfortunately, I don't think the picture you're getting from DISH is really going to be improved upon very much by the purchase of a video processor. Will it be better? Probably, but not really enough to justify the expense of a video processor. Besides the DISH signal, the display you have purchased is also a limitation with regard to the image that is displayed to your eyes. That said, if I were you and had my mind set on getting a high quality video processor for that display, I'd make one call (pun intended).
