    So who has GoogleTV?

    Yep I purchased my Sony GS7 in August of 2012 for $199.Outside of flash being not updated they did promise us a browser upgrade from HC3.2 to JB4.2 which we all aren't expecting to get since AndroidTV has been announced.My Roku3 is a better streamer and the browser is S-L-O-W.Even at $99 for the...

    No U Verse

    I was excited back in December 2009 when my neighborhood was full of AT&T contractors and they were laying fiber optic.I asked them what was going on and they said U Verse was coming to our hood.They even put a connector in my front yard.With all that trouble they went to the main cable has...

    U-verse Question

    I would know from those who have U-verse is it like satellte in that you have a receiver box to use on each TV.I am not into anHD/DVR receiver so since the digital channels have gotten such good reviews that would all I would want.I have three TV and I guess the first receiver is included...

    Is there any way to find out launch timetables?

    That's what I did right before Christmas when I came home for lunch and contractors and AT&T vans/trucks were all over the place.I asked them what was going on.They told me U-verse was coming to our neighborhood.I called the main ATT&T office and they said if it was just starting construction we...

    AT&T U-Verse

    I just wish you could see the poor quality of Northland Cable TV I put up with just for BB.Even with their fiber optic setup ran through our neighborhood the analog channels are fuzzy and some have these lines that roll up the screen.OTA channels look100% better than their upper digital...

    Merry Christmas everyone!Any in here use AT&T U-Verse for their service? This is coming to our area in a couple of months.Now our front yards are a muddy mess with them putting down a fiber optic cable.I know it will be better than our present Northland Cable Co.I was wanting just to hear some...

    Anyone get a better price if trying to disconnect?

    Hey Dude,just be happy you have a choice!I'm stuck with the only choice I have which is Northland Cable.Their 2-99 channels is worse than OTA and they said that's the best it gets.They are 15$ to 20$ higher than all the other cable companies on every service they offer.The only reason I stick...

    Is anyone elses cable company as antiquated as Windstream?

    Check out northlandcabletv.com and see for yourself.The lower channels 2-99 are still analog.If it wasn't for BB I'd have dish in a moment.Same price for regular cable as for Dish's 250 package and their rates go up every year!:rant:

    Just Wondering

    I thought I read in here one time before where someone plugged their cable to the digital input connection and did a scan and found there were some more channels than they had through the analog cnnection.I know it's for over the air signals but I thought I saw in one of the forums where someone...

    Amplified Splitters

    I was wondering if one of those Motorola Amplfied Splitters would make any difference quality wise.No need to ask my cable company for any help all they do is come out and make sure all the connections are tight.DUH,I always check that out myself.I guess analog channels 2-99 will always look...

    Waiting For AT&T

    AT&T have put in new fiber optic cables all down the main highway where I live.I keep seeing these big metal boxes going up here and there with DSL on the side.I keep hoping they would put some down my way.The only reason I stay with cable is the fact it is the only means of BB.I see Verizon and...

    Cable Splitters?

    Are the monster cable splitters really better than the ones the cable companies use?When up on amazon and reading reviews everyone seems to think they see an improvment in picture quality.I think Steve works for a cable company.Anyone had any experience using monster splitters?Thanks,overtimeman :up

    Local on the Eights

    I see they are still waiting for dish network to finally give them a dish version of local on the eights from the Weather channel.It will never be as great as what the cable companies offer.When I had dish I never watched all the channels anyway.I still have four more years of warranty left on...

    Do You Remember?

    When we first moved to this house 17 years ago was the first taste of cable tv.Where we did live we only could receive 5 channels with an outside antenna.Good thing I did not have to work the next day,cause I stayed up all night checking out those 52 channels.I thought I died and went to heaven...

    Splitter Question

    Here is my setup.I have 3 TVs and a cable modem for internet access.I noticed the cable guy used the old set up I had when I had a dish and had a cable run from my dish unit in our bedroom to my sons room so he could use our dish receiver to watch TV in his room.Outside now he has a three way...
