Just noticed in Diagnostics under Counters, if you scroll down to line 28) it reads Status scheduled: 06/16/08 6:12pm NT NA.

Any idea what this means?

I'm pretty sure that my serial numbers are in the range posted by RandallA

Why so paranoid? I hope they monitor what I watch in the hopes that they will do what they can to ensure they continue to provide programming which I will enjoy. Nothing like watching a show and getting really in to it only to have it cancelled (Jericho, Invasion, Threshold, etc)
