Does this mean the wise cracks about how E* can't match the D* announced number of HD channels until it launches more birds isn't true?

I'm just looking for a frame of reference to have when I read all the threads about new HD.
If I remember from other threads correctly, E* can put up about 12 new HD channels pretty quickly. With the delay in launching of E11 and AMC14, D* has a short-term advantage. That advantage will disappear after E*'s birds get off the ground.
