Kevin Martin's last day at the FCC is the 20th

Kevin MartinOf course we saw this coming with Obama's inauguration right around the corner, but now Kevin Martin has sent his official letter of resignation to his buddy George. This makes his official last day as chairman of the FCC January 20th. He has had the position for four years, and oversaw many of the decisions made by the agency that impacted us like the DTV transition date and the lack of progress of a two way digital cable solution. There's no word on what the eight year veteran of the FCC will do next though, and of course we'll also have to continue to wait for the official appointment of his successor.

Comcast bringing more HD to Florida's Treasure Coast

Barely a month after Comcast tossed a slew of HD channels down Jacksonville's way, we're now hearing that a handful will soon be coming to Florida's fabled Treasure Coast. More specifically, Discovery HD, USA Network, Sci-Fi HD, Animal Planet HD and History Channel HD should be live in Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River counties by 6:00AM EST tomorrow morning. Furthermore, HGTV HD and Food Network HD -- which is already available to Indian River subscribers -- will be available across the Treasure Coast on the morning of February 1st as well (according to Comcast spokeswoman Marta Casas-Celaya, anyway). So for those of you camped out in the area, be sure to fire up your HD DVR tomorrow bright and early and report back with your findings, would ya?
