I am in the former Time Warner Cable area of Houston, Texas and I have had most of those channels you are reporting since October now. I have now been told by a reliable source that works at Comcast, that there are about 26 more HD Channels coming to Houston within the month. They are finishing the touches of installing SDV (Switched Digital Video) as we speak from what I have been told. I have not seen the new offerings though for HD VOD as of yet. Comcast is still in transition from Time Warner Cable here, but when finished in early summer we are being told to be ready for full digital system here. Let me know if anyone else has receiver word if the Tivo Launch has stopped all together at this point as they only offer this feature in a few cities at this time.
Haven't heard that and we've had 2 technicians come out in the last few weeks. Leaving this morning I saw 4 Comcast trucks at the gas station across from my neighborhood. They guy said they've been having lots of problems.
Hopefully they would get rid of the piece of shit HD DVRs from Scientific Atlanta they pulled out of 1980 they guide is the worst I've ever seen and none of them would record HD right for me.
