It has been a long time coming, but those 14 HD channels that Comcast promised back in May are just about ready for primetime. Based on a followup in The Longmont Times-Call, we're told that the carrier is around 80% complete with its $6 million infrastructure upgrade, which will bring 14 new high-def channels and 35 pay-per-view stations to the lineup. When all's said and done, LoMo residents will have access to the same lineup that's currently in Denver and Boulder, and if everything stays on schedule, that 80% figure should reach 100% within six weeks. Huzzah!

I am happy to hear that we will be getting additional content in LoMo! OTA signals are difficult to come by being so far from Lookout Mountain. Thanks for the update!

35 PPV ? Why, ever heard of on demand?

Great! Now Longmont can experience the atrocious pixelization that the rest of us are subjected to. Actually, in that case, you have my sympathies, Longmont.
