TWC brings more HD to Staten Island and Syracuse, NY
Just as we expected, Time Warner Cable is delivering five new HD channels to its all-digital Staten Island market, and while midtown NYC gets left out (again), folks braving the chill up in Syracuse have three more reasons to stay indoors. Aside from gaining NY1 on slot 701, Staten Island residents will also see the Discovery suit showing up in their EPG, which includes Science Channel HD (775), TLC HD (752), Discovery HD (766) and Animal Planet HD (786). As for Syracuse, locals in the region can now tune into History Channel HD (818), TBS HD (822) and CNN HD (824). As for surrounding areas, we haven't heard anything official concerning the possibility of these networks spreading, but as always, keep a sharp eye on that channel lineup and drop us a line if any newcomers pop up.

WHY ISN'T TWC ADDING ANY HD CHANNELS TO MANHATTAN??!.

because Staten Island and woodside queens are all digital, and in Manhattan we still have an analog system. Once the get ride of analog we will see the same channels that Staten Island is getting right now.

All of Queens went digital March 1st and we've gotten crap so far.
