AT&T strings U-verse to four more Orange County, CA cities


U-verse TV has been hangin' in the OC for quite some time now, but some of the more notable locales have been doing without. It's with much joy that we inform you that four new cities can now receive access, and they are: Aliso Viejo, Laguna Woods, Lake Forest and Newport Beach. For the full list of neighborhoods in those regions with newly available access, hop on past the break.

TWC looks to bring Start Over / Look Back, more HD to Orange County


For those parked in beautiful Orange County, California and wondering if Time Warner Cable is thinking of you, trust us, we feel your pain. Thankfully, competition has pressured the carrier into opening its eyes a bit, as a recent interview with the president of OC's Time Warner Cable operations has given folks in the area something to look forward to. For starters, subscribers can soon expect faster internet speeds all around, with "Power Boost" taking underutilized capacity and giving it to those who need an extra burst to suck down a large file. Additionally, users will finally see Caller ID on their TV, and best of all, Fred Stefany admitted that HD was a priority and that most areas should have upwards of 50 high-def channels before 2009. Finally, we're told that SDV, Start Over and Look Back are all coming within the next several months. Check the read link for the full writeup, and hang tight (if you can).

Cox bringing 8 new HD channels to Orange County / Palos Verdes, California


Although Cox isn't hooking the OC and Palos Verdes, California up with quite as many new HD channels as those in Fredericksburg, VA, eight newcomers isn't anything to sneeze at. Judging by e-mails (and postcards, too) starting to filter out to OC-area residents, said carrier will soon be delivering KCET HD (PBS), Travel Channel HD, Science Channel HD, NHL HD, HBO HD, Cinemax HD, Showtime HD and Starz HD. Unfortunately, all we know is that these should arrive in your EPG sometime during the course of next month, but just in case eight new faces weren't enough, Cox is also promising that "even more" are on the way.
